Understanding the symptoms of ringworm
Ringworm, also called ‘tinea’ is a common skin rash or infection that can appear anywhere on the body. It typically presents as a red, circular rash, sometimes with a raised, scaly border. The center of the rash may appear clear or slightly red or have purple undertones. It can start as just one ring and can develop into more as it spreads to different parts of the body, including the legs called athlete’s foot.
Ringworms can vary in size and can grow if left untreated. This can be unsightly if you’re outside, so you’ll want to start treatment with an antifungal cream right away.
Ringworm can appear on the skin, scalp, nails and groin. You may see a red, scaly patch on the scalp or beard area, or thick, discolored or chalky nails.
It is important to note that the rash may not always be ring-shaped and the rash may not be itchy. Ringworm can appear slightly differently for different people.
