How do I know if I have ringworm?

Question:

Answers:
If you have ringworm, you will see a round dry patch at the site of where it is. It will be like a ring. To get rid of it, one of the best things I know of is Tinactin. (For athletes feet.) All ringworm is is a fungus. Tinactin will kill it pretty quickly. Make sure you keep the site clean and dry, then apply the Tinactin. Wash your hands if you touch it, because it can be contageous.

Other Answers:
You'll have reddish circular spots that itch over your body. The skin around them will be irritated and start to peel. Go to the pharmacy and pick up some Lamisil AT. It's usually for jock itch and athletes foot (tinea cruris and tinea pedia), but the antifungal agents in it will clear it up.

I know an old remedy for ringworm.My grandmother used it on me,get a fig from a fig bush cut it in half and rub it over the ringworm.It will kill it and there wont be any scars.
