Where does ringworm originate?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Ringworm isn't a worm. It's a skin infection that's caused by moldlike fungi that live on the dead tissues of your skin, hair, and nails. You can get it in any of these places -- and on your scalp. When you get it between your toes, it's what people call athlete's foot. 15 мар. 2021 г.
