Causes of Ringworm

2024-06-15 07:16:30
My 9 month old niece has a ringworm on the side of her forehead. Her father takes a bath in 5-6 days. But he doesn't have any infections. Also, one of our neighbours has a dog, but they don't let him touch my niece whatsoever. He just walks with her when she's in her stroller. What can be the causes of a ringworm? How can a kid this small get a ringworm?
