haha i'm glad i could bring laughter to your day, but if i'm not mistaken, we use our hands to put shoes on every day (unless you are lazy and just stomp in them until they get on right). just a thought?

IDK Twist, I mean I was wrestling at the age of 3 1/2. It's a possibility there is a wrestler within her Kindergarden class. The plausible idea why she is getting it is still the Cat thing though. This is why Dogs are better.

Really, so you cant get it from dog feces? which I may remind you is all over the yard, instead of in a cat litter box (unless of course the kid played in the box trying to make a sand castle). Before any say anything, keep in mind I like both dogs and cats, I just own a cat.

No matter where you get it I'm pretty sure we all agree it takes forever to go away! and does anyone know if that Defense soap works? I dont want to waste money on something that might not work you know

Soaps/ Ointments that work well:

Soap
Coast (anti-bacterial) (bar soap)
Dial (anti-bacterial) (bar soap)
Lever 2000 (anti-bacterial) (bar soap)

Ointment
Lamisil (anti-fungal) (cream)

and if worst comes to worse, use BLEACH (on a q-tip). it will hurt, but usually goes away within 2 days or so.

I hope this helps

Using Selsun Blue shampoo as a body wash also works well at preventing ringworm. It will really dry out the skin though, so using some type of moisturizer may be needed on occassion.

Also, don't just throw your wet practice clothes in a gym bag and leave them there for several hours. That will contminate the inside of the bag & your clean clothes when you put them back in the bag. Instead, put your wet clothes in a plastic Walmart type shopping bag before putting them in your gym bag and remove them as soon as you get home. Leave the gym bag open & let it air out over night

Alright thanks

Ringworm is a fungus, loves wet and dark. Not only is the blue shampoo good, but they offer it in a prescription form, selenium sulfide. Shower with that and you can wrestle with cats, dogs, and kids.

The bleach works great along with the lamisil. I know exactly how he got it all the wet gross practices and wet Fri night games. Underarmor = petri dish. Even though we were washing them almost daily.
