I have never heard that ringworm makes you hungry.
As far as them being more susceptible to ringworm once they have had it..I don't know. I think they are more susceptible to it if their immune system is compromised, or they are stressed. Moving can certainly do it. One thing though, ringworm is more common in areas where the weather is warm and humid. The hard winter freeze and cooler weather in Canada should help manage it much better. |
I dontknow but i remember hearing that when i was younger... you know how sometimes things just stick to your head :P
I really do think the hot and humidity have done it... it was extremely humid during the monsoon season which lasted a week...
