I actually don't think that you can get ringworms from surfaces, but I could be wrong. It's a fungi infection. I actually have one right now,:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Ringworm is a common fungal infection resulting from dermatophytes, which are microscopic organisms that live on the dead outer layer of skin. Ringworm can affect anyone at anytime.Many antifungal creams can clear the condition in around two weeks. Examples of such preparations include those that contain clotrimazole ,ketoconazole etc.
