Good to know that there are OTC things for it, I had no idea! When I had it as a kid, we had to go to the doctor for some cream, I think. Been a long time.
I have only heard of maybe two other kids who had ringworm at school, one is a farm kid who evidently passed it to one other kid and my boy. At least as far as we know! I haven't remembered to ask any one what the 'incubation' period is, so later this spring there might be a bunch of kids with it! I also understand that some kids get a small spot which resolves on itself while others have terrible problems, like my son.
I've sure learned a lot more than I ever wanted to know about ringworm, that's for sure.
So, I'm doing a lot of laundry, & cleaning, etc., trying to get keep on top of it; I don't know if it'll work or not, but there's not much else I can do. Just wish we'd have one nice warm dry weekend so I could shampoo carpets. At least it's in time for spring cleaning.
Thanks for the information & support, guys, I feel a bit better and a little less like a bad mom now!
