My son may have ringworm of the scalp. his skin is flaking - and a sore on his scalp. it's itchy and he has a stomach ache, headache and sore throat?

Needs evaluation: Sounds like ringworm but that should not be causing the other symptoms. Needs to see primary care provider. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

See a doctor: typically ringworm doesn't cause systemic symptoms like sore throat and stomach ache, take him to see his doctor.

Unrelated: The sore on the scalp is likely unrelated to the stomach ache, headache and sore throat (fungal infections of the scalp do not usually cause these distant symptoms). His doctor can help you sort this out.

Scalp: The symptoms of a sore throat and stomach ache don't fit the picture of ringworm of the scalp. There may be two seperate entities affecting you. You may have ringworm of the scalp but you could also have a viral sore throat
