8. Prevention

It is all but impossible to completely prevent exposure to the fungi that can cause ringworm. However, we can make it less likely that it will happen by following some fairly straight forward advice. One of these is to avoid sharing items like towels and brushes with other people.

Keeping clean as much as possible can also help to prevent infections, and be extra sure to shower immediately after taking part in contact sports. You should also try to stay in a cool, dry environment for as long as possible, and wearing loose clothing will also help. Also try and avoid contact with people or animals that you suspected to be infested.
