I have a ring worm on my stomach. if i touch my stomach and then my scalp, will it transfer to my scalp? i'm so paranoid?

Not only you, most people touch their heads and other parts of the body all the time. However, that activity does not often cause ring worm on your scalp if you have ring worm on other parts of your body. Take care.
