Ringworm is a fungal skin infection that occurs on the face, body or
scalp. The symptoms of Ringworm or Tinea Capitis include a dry
itchy scalp, scaling, crusting, inflamed nodules, hair loss and tender enlarged lymph nodes on the neck. I suggest you to get an examination done from your doctor and get a KOH examination of the scrapings to check whether it is a fungal infection. Then treatment involves using topical and oral antifungals.
