How did you not realize your a 16 year old wrestling cat? lol its obvious! lol anyway, im sorry about that, glad to know it went away. All these people are posting comments about having it on their neck and face. I got it lucky. Somehow i got it on my leg/thigh. It went away fairly quickly. And about the picture, no offence, but the word EEEWWWW doesn’t just seem to express it! lol

great post i suspect ringworm on my scalp area and im using lamisil now so i hope it works… if i remember i will let you know how that works out, also great storyline to the tragedy furthermore i hope roeslitas family dies of cancer (too much?), but seriously something unfortunate should happen to her/”it” maybe herpies.

I am sorry that people are that cruel so say such things even if you had ringworm on your chin I wouldn’t run away from you. You seem like a genuine, great, fun person and I am glad you made it through that with your sense of humor. My friend just found out she has ringworm just before I found this site, and your story just made me want to punch those people with their little comments. I’m just saying I wouldn’t have been able to walk away with out making them feel bad for trying to use a medical condition against me. I hope your doing well, thanks for your story :)

It’s a shame how people treated you like you were the plague itself. There are many nasty manifestations humans deal with quite often. Just because it’s not visible doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Yeast infections for example, most common in the vagina, in the mouth as thrush, or on the bottom as diaper rash. Dandruff, athletes foot, lice, scabies… they are all more common than you think. It doesn’t make a person nasty or unclean for having it. Generally it’s from being at the wrong place at the wrong time in the wrong conditions. I’m glad your face healed up nicely. :)

We just found out my boyfriend has ringworm.. its on the side of his face and 2 on his neck. He has no idea how the hell he got it but we went to a clinic and they gave him a cream. I think we caught it early so im glad about that. Which sucks is that at the moment i have a Virus (The Flu) and he has that… so its kinda hard to cuddle and my cat misses petting lol

Happy to know you got rid of it and hopefully u never get it again.. :)

My friend has ringworm. She got it from high school wrestling. It’s contracted when you share sweat with another infectious person…and it only runs on one side of your body, following the bloodstream.
Good to know you got it cleared up!

Dude named Kevin,

It’s amazing–the things that pop into my head … For example, I was sitting at my computer designing makeup brochures and said to myself, “I should google pictures of ringworm.” I don’t have it and haven’t since I was about 12 (so it’s been a good 15 years), but that’s the way my brain works. (Sometimes it’s unfortunate.) Your thumbnail, naturally, was the grossest thing to pop up (and the 2nd photo listed, so kudos on your new-found fame!) so I just HAD to see the full-blown pic. “Eeeeeeeeeew” doesn’t even begin to describe my reaction … but then I started reading and ooooooh man … you are sooooooooo funny! My ringworm adventure soon turned into a “what will he say next” quest. I’m sorry for your dilemma–really. That must’ve sucked. Good thing it didn’t last very long in the scheme of things. I don’t believe for a second that you don’t have friends, though, cuz if I had people as funny as you around, I’d never leave home without them in my pocket! Thanks for putting a smile on my face. =) Have a great day!

hello my cats have ringworm and my daughter has got it to and yes it looks like a ring but i have started to get little red bumps like a bug bit and it really is itchy. dose it always have to look like the rings or can you have red dots all over your body in different places?

I had a ringworm once. My ex-boyfriend’s mother picked up a stray cat, which proceeded to “share the wealth” – sorry about you face though. If there is any consolation, I think your an excellent writer, and your story made me laugh out loud.

You are the funniest person in the world. You just made my night. I’m going to a party but this was better. I cried I laughed so hard.

This is Jes writing. My friend LIzz, who is currently sitting across from me rambling about the movie we are watching, has ringworm on her neck and shoulder. I was googling info for her and came across the picture of your chin. I have two things to comment about it. A.) We both agree that despite the “blob” on your chin you are rather cute in that picture. Lizz would probably have a different and inevitably more colorful way of phrasing that. B.) Lizz said she would be your friend even with said “blob” on your chin. Simply because you were hilarious in your post, and seemed to, online atleast, take it in good humor. I happen to agree with her.

Signing off

My son has a ringworm on his shoulder. He is 9 and was concerned. We googled and chose this site to research the infliction. As I read aloud your plight, we both laughed and the worry went away.. You have a great sense of humor! Glad those pilgrims went home…
