ringworm isn't a worm it is a fungi and so the fungi reproduces and not the worm (because it isn't a worm)
If you want to get rid of scalp ringworm fast, then what I have found to work for me is to dab bleach on the affected area, although, this may lead to permanent damage such as scarring, or permanent hair-loss. A more safe way is to us shampoos such as Nizoral shampoo, Sulfur 8 shampoo, Head and Shoulders, or selsum bleu shampoo. No matter what you do, always wash your pillow case and switch it out with another once every two days. From my past experiences, these have all worked for me, and my hair had started to grow back in about 2-3 months. Since I wrestle, i am expose to ringworm quite frequently. So, I really hope this helps, Good Luck! :)

Direct contact with infected people, animals, or inanimate objects transmits the fungal infection. Most ringworm infections result from human dermatophytes. Still, you can develop ringworm through exposure to animals (commonly the household pet) and from the soil.Although infection may go away without treatment, some ringworm may require antifungal medications applied as cream to the lesions.

Ringworm is not actually a worm, it is a fungus, and it is found on the surface of the skin. In most people the immune system can prevent infection. Many people acquire ringworm from kittens or cats, which may or may not show symptoms. Ringworm is most often a small, isolated lesion which goes away quickly with proper treatment.
you can go swimming at any time. Just make sure that you dry the area with a clean towel that only you will be using and apply anti fungal medication on the area several times each day. It will take a long time for it to go away but continue the medicine on that area for about a week after the visible signs of ringworm go away.
