When you hear “ringworm,” you probably imagine a creepy parasite—but the truth is far less sinister and far more fascinating. In this episode, we uncover the real story behind ringworm: a common fungal infection that’s been affecting humans for over 2,000 years. From ancient medical texts in India, Greece, and Rome to bizarre treatments involving mercury, sulfur, and even X-rays, the history of ringworm is as surprising as its name.
We break down what ringworm actually is, how it spreads, why it’s so contagious, and the many ways it can show up on the body—from athlete’s foot to scalp infections. You’ll also learn how modern medicine finally cracked the code with effective antifungal treatments, and what you can do to protect yourself, your family, and even your pets.
It’s itchy, it’s persistent, and it’s everywhere—but with the right knowledge, it’s also completely manageable. Let’s clear up the myths and get to the root of one of the world’s oldest and most misunderstood infections.
