By Dr. Nenad Misura
Despite the name, ringworm isn't a parasite at all, it's a highly contagious fungal infection that can spread between pets and people.
In this video, Dr. Nenad Misura explains the signs to watch for and what treatment actually involves.
Key Takeaways from Dr. Nenad:
• The Signs: Patchy hair loss, crusting, or scaling on the skin.
• Treatment: Oral medication you can give at home, straightforward but not always sufficient alone.
• Restrict Movement: Keeping your pet from roaming the house is essential to stop it spreading and prolonging the problem.

Hi, this is Dr. Nenad. Yes, unfortunately, ringworm is contagious. So if you notice any problems on the skin of your pets, such as patchy hair loss, crusting, or scaling, the best thing to do is bring them to us, where we can investigate. The treatment is fairly simple. It's oral medication that you can give yourself [music] at home. Uh, but that's not always enough because we need to remember one very important thing : the restriction of movement is very, very important [music]. We should not let them roam around the house because, by doing so, they will spread the infection, and we will have a problem for a very long time.
