In cat ringworm, only the hair is fluorescent, indicating that the fungus has infected the cat's hair. In this case, we need to take timely measures for treatment to prevent the condition from getting worse. Ringworm is a skin disease caused by a fungus that usually forms round or ring-shaped patches on your cat’s skin. These patches may be hairless, red, swollen, or even scaly. Fluorescence is a special manifestation of cat ringworm. This is because the fungus produces a special fluorescent substance when it grows and reproduces on the hair.

The treatment of cat ringworm mainly includes drug treatment and daily care. In terms of medical treatment, we usually use antifungal drugs to kill the fungus and prevent the condition from getting worse. These medications can be taken orally or applied to your cat’s skin. The specific type of drug and method of use need to be determined based on the cat’s condition and the doctor’s advice.
