ringworm & ivermetin

[alvarezboy]

can we treat ringworm with ivermectin?

Ignore what I said I have my medications mixed up!

Please take your piggy to a vet if you haven’t already, and I wouldn’t use any creams or anything unless advised by a vet.

Please see a vet. Ivermectin is for parasites whereas ringworm is a fungal infection so it won’t help.
The guide Piggl has linked in will help with information including making sure you disinfect the cages thoroughly. Spores are shed during a ringworm infection and can live in the environment for up to two years so you really do need to make sure you disinfect thoroughly

is that ringworm?

unfortunately your photo isn’t clear. We also can’t diagnose by photo. Please have your piggy seen by the vet. Make sure you’re very strict with hygiene in case it is ringworm.

We cannot diagnose - we aren’t vets, and things always need a hands on check.
Please do see a vet
