First, a quick reality check. Ringworm is a fungus, not a wriggly little creature with a mean streak. It’s more like that annoying houseplant that grows in the dark corners of your shower. Your grandma probably called it “jock itch” or “athlete’s foot,” but the science says it’s a dermatophyte that loves warm, damp places.
Imagine the fungus throwing a tiny, gross rave on your skin. Rubbing alcohol walks in like the cool dad who turns off the music. But does it actually stop the party for good?
