does ringworm go away on its own - #25002

Jackson

I am really worried because I think I may have ringworm. A couple of weeks ago, I noticed a weird, itchy red patch on my arm and thought it was just some dry skin or maybe an allergy. But, it got bigger and started looking kind of circular, like you know, how ringworm looks. A friend mentioned that sometimes, ringworm can just disappear on its own, which got me thinking, does ringworm go away on its own? I mean, should I just wait and see if it clears up? Or is it like one of those things that only gets worse if you don't do anything about it? I don’t want to go to the doctor unless I really have to, I’ve been applying some neem oil hoping it helps but I’m not too sure. Also, I’ve been reading that it’s contagious, and I’m just more worried about spreading it, especially to my kids! If anyone has dealt with this, advice would be super helpful. Does ringworm go away on its own? How do I know when it’s time to see someone? Thanks!
