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.
