My friend's son has ringworm on the side of his face. She has invited us over and I'm afraid to go because I think it's contagious. My husband and I don't want to get it and we especially don't want our little girl to get it. My other friend thinks it's silly and doesn't think it's that contagious. But I thought you could get it from even coming into contact with something the person who has ringworm has touched. I feel guilty for avoiding going to my friend's house, but I really don't want to get ringworm, am I making the right decision in not going? Does anyone know the best treatment for ringworm and how long until it goes away with proper treatment?
