Haha. I refuse to call it ringworm. .____.
So. I went to the doctor and showed him my circles and I'm like. I think it's tinea. And he goes. I'd by that. And gave me lamisil cream. And said nothing else.
But. You know I kind of forgot to ask him.
HOW CONTAGIOUS IS IT?!?!
Can I touch things?
It's on my back.
I don't really touch people with my back.
But what if someone touches my back!??!
HELP.
I don't even know where I got it.
I took my dog in, just incase she had it.
But nope. None whatsoever.
Does it spread easily?!?!
HELP.

Tinea corporis is contagious. You can catch the condition if you come into direct contact with someone who is infected, or if you touch contaminated items such as combs, clothing, shower floors and walls, or pool surfaces. The fungi can also be spread by pets. (Cats are common carriers).
