Ring worm infection recurring is due to reincection from unhygeinic toilets ;dresses -especially undergarments-which you have not dipped in hot water for 5 minutes and dried for reuse; from your close contacts who are having ring worm infection etc. Improving personal hygeine by above methods is the only way to avoid reinfection.
