ringworm is most commonly contracted from a child playing in a sand box....because stray cats tend to urinate in them. if there are cats near by that is the most likely source. to ease the itching buy BLUE STAR OINTMENT and put it all over the ring worm. as to getting completely rid of it i would see the doctor about some type of topical ointment or antibiotic

try using athlete foot creams, its basically a form of athlete foot. its a fungal infection. if it is weeping or ozzing then u may have a staph infection over the ring worm. its very common in kids and pets
