Whats causes babys to get ringworms? and what can i use to treat them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ringworm is treated with an antifungal cream. Ringworm is a fungal infection. It comes from contact with a fungus. There are some common areas where fungi live. Moist dark areas. Like the inside of a shoe, old sponge, unclean towel, moist surface (bathroom fall, unclean tub, plastic basin) . You can't get rid of fungus on the skin until you get rid of the source
