You have to : Try your best not to itch , this makes the problem worse. You can be spreading fungus or bacteria when you scratch as your nails are burrowing into the skin. If you feel it's ringworm then that would be a fungus so apply an antifungal agent rub with finger tips don't scratch with nails.
