All About Ringworm In Humans
8. Prevention
One of the best ways to prevent ringworm is to avoid sharing items with other people. This especially means items like towels that can easily be contaminated with the fungus responsible for the disease. Washing your hands regularly will also help to limit the spread of ringworm, and other diseases.
If you take part in contact sports then you should shower as soon as you have finished. This can help to remove any of the fungus from the skin before it has the chance to take hold. Areas in schools and public areas should be kept as clean as possible to help prevent the infection from spreading.
