Ringworm
Ringworm is a common fungal skin infection that causes a ring-shaped rash on the skin. It's not caused by an actual worm, but by a fungus. The infection can be itchy and may lead to scaling and cracked skin. Treatment usually involves using antifungal creams, lotions, or powders for skin infections, and prescription oral antifungal medication for scalp infections.
