A member asked:
If i have a ringworm/fungal infection can i go swimming in clorine water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You should: have your fungal infection TREATED BEFORE you use a common pool! People REACT to seeing ANY skin problem in other swimmers. You CAN go swimming in a chlorine trteated pool but you SHOULDN'T (In my opinion!!!) Hope this helps! Dr Z
