I just found out i have ringworm should i change my sheets right away or wait intill my treatment is done?

Either: You may wish to do both. You do not need to replace sheets. Laundering will take care of the fungus on the sheets. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
