What Is Ringworm of the groin-?

This is also called Jock Itch. This is a ringworm infection in the groin area. A fungus causes ringworm. This itching disease forms circular patches with defined edges.

Ringworm- clinical look

Ringworm patches form in a circular shape. The ringworm patch has clear defined red edges and a center of skin color. The name worm is misleading because no worm has anything to do with this disease. The fungus finds the groin area moist and warm and that is ideal for it to multiply. You can get the infection by touching somebody else’s ringworm, sharing towels, etc. animals also spread this disease. If you touch an animal suffering from ringworm and then scratch your groin area the fungus will infect you.

Treating Ringworm on Pets

A littlringworm on petse over a month ago I adopted a cat with ringworm. I was told that wasn’t what it was by the prior owner but a vet proved otherwise. I was given a sulfur dip & sent home.

I have other animals (3 dogs) not to mention having 2 toddlers & I had to keep it contained so I put the cat in my master bathroom (which is pretty big) I have been dipping her but she still has it & about 2 weeks ago my son let her out of the bathroom & we didn’t know until she’d already made her rounds around the house.

Now our 2 labradors have ringworm. I’ve called the vet & requested pills for the cat but it is $100 a month and could take up to 3 months to cure it. The vet said they would not give me pills for the dogs unless I brought them in which is $40 a pop plus another $100 each a month for treatment.

I am sorry to say that I can only afford to treat one with meds & the cat has had it the longest so I’ve choosen her.

Home Remedies for Ringworm on Pets

Are there any home remedies for this stuff? I’ve heard of Vicks and bleach.
Yes, if my children get it we have medical insurance that will take care of it. We just don’t have $500-$600 to plop down right away and $300 a month to keep up with it.

You should be able to be antifugal cream over-the-counter and apply that on the ringworm with gloves at least once a day. I would still try to keep all your pets quarantined. If at all possible get color safe bleach for everything they have come in contact with because the ringworm can actually seep into things (including walls etc) and remain there until it is cleansed out to be passed to whoever might get it next. Our told us about that and made us bleach our entire facility so that we would not have random outbreaks of ringworm much later on (which is how the outbreak started in the first place).

Keep in mind that ringworm does take awhile to clear up and before you put your guard down I would take all your pets in for a negative skin scrape or you might be repeating the whole process over again! Hopefully your vet doesn’t charge an outrageous amount of money for that.. ughh vet bills

If its any consolation, I work at a shelter and we had a ringworm out break in the cat room recently. A few employees still needed to go in there to clean on a daily basis and I decided to be one of them. We ended up discovering that out of everyone that works there, only one person actually is suseptable to it (out of over 10).
