Can a person with foot give another ringworm?

Yes, a person with athlete's foot can give it to another person through direct contact with the infected skin or by sharing contaminated items such as towels, shoes, or clothing. Athlete's foot is caused by a type of fungus called dermatophyte, which can spread easily from person to person. To prevent the spread of athlete's foot, it is important to keep your feet clean and dry, wear shoes that fit well, and avoid sharing personal items.
