Persistent ringworm: Being body clean is a first requisite. Avoid seeing the person who infected you until his/her ringworm is completely gone. Do not wear another person's clothing. Wash your clothes and bed linens in hot water. If using otc medications for a scalp ringworm, consult your doctor for a prescription for an oral antifungal medication.
