Direct Contact
Just like other contagious diseases and illnesses, ringworm would spread by skin-to-skin or direct contact with infected people. Thus, if any of your family members or friends are suffering from this condition, make sure to avoid touching their body parts. However, this could be hard since most people do not usually realize the signs of ringworm just based on the condition of their skin. Such simple activities like hugging or holding hands can be a perfect way for ringworm fungus and bacteria to transfer from people to people. Also, keep in mind to clean your body after playing contact sports. [2]
