I think our dog has ringworm. he is going to the vet tomorrow. is there anything we can take to prevent infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hand washing: There is nothing you need to take; the truth is that the fungus that causes ringworm is everywhere - animals, people, carpet, soil, etc. The best thing you can do is follow the vet's instructions, avoid touching the area directly and wash your hands often! Good luck!
