Ringworm

yes the UV light kills the fungus

Ring"worm" is actually a fungal infection, so creams containing clotrimazole or miconazole should be good; there are several over-the-counter antifungal creams for treatment of ringworm/athlete's foot/jock itch (which are all caused by essentially the same group of organisms). If those don't work, see a physician.

They are not disease peresay, but more afflictions. Athlete's foot is actually a fungus that grows between the toes and is caused by mold spores that thrive in warm, moist environments. Ringworm is similar to a tapeworm: it gets in through open sores on the body, most typically the feet.

Ringworm is a skin infection caused by a fungus. It is highly contagious and can be acquired via contact with an infected person, sharing infected items like clothing or shoes, and petting an infected animal.

A ringworm can not go away on it's on it does in fact have to be treated because of several reasons number one a ringworm itches so when you go to scratch it they you touch another part of your body it spreads. It's a fungus and if you keep feeding it with lotion and even natural oil from one's body will also cause it to spread and not wearing the proper clothing on, that's another way it feeds on causing it to spread more. The best thing to do in any case is as soon as you see a ringworm treat it right away with an ant-fungal cream or it will spread and get worse.

No, it is not safe to bandage your ringworm because you have to let it air out, if you want to bandage it then make it lose so air can still get to it.

Without medication, they can go away in several months. However, it's best to go to the doctor, or vet if it's your pet, and get medication. With medication, it will take a couple of weeks to go away. It's best to use it for about a month, though, just to be sure that all of them are gone.

look up Tinea Versicolor. It is genetic and noncontagious. It is a yeast and is similar to atlete's foot and ringworm (only NOT contagious). There are home remedies such as Tinactin, Lotrimin, hydrocortisone cream, and dandruff shampoos such as Head and Shoulders that you can put on the skin and let soak in overnight or you can get a prescription of oral Nizoral 200mg and take once a day for 5 to 7 days. Sad thing is it is not curable and usually comes back every summer.

no. the sun dries out pimples. unless u sweat alot while tanning then yeah.

Unfortunately, yes. Ringworm can transmitted from animal to human and vice versa. When I was a young girl, I actually got it from one of my aunt's cats when I was spending the night. Once you contract ringworm, it stays in your system and you can get random outbreaks of it. It isn't as bad as you may think though. It's just a small reddish spot that itchs. It's not usually noticeable. Usually your doctor can prescibe an ointment for it.

If it's an antibbiotic then that won't work for herpes. For genital herpes the best way to treat it is with with antiviral medications like valtrex, famvir or acyclovir.

If it's on your mouth then you can apply over the counter cold sore creams to treat it.

Ringworm cannot kill you but if left unchecked it can lead to other infections that can lead to death.

It has a half-life of 36 hours, which is much longer than a lot of drugs. You could safely estimate it would last 3 days at the least, and up to a week at the longest. Depending on what your dose was and how long you took it.
