Listerine is not an effective treatment for ringworm, which is a fungal infection. While it may have some antiseptic properties, it does not target the fungi responsible for ringworm. For effective treatment, it's best to use antifungal medications specifically designed for this type of infection. Always consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment options.
