Ringworm symptoms in horses is similar to the same symptoms in humans. The horse will have circular lesions that have no fur and the center will appear to heal , somewhat, with flaky/scaly skin. The sore will continue to enlarge and the telltale fine red ring around the edges that may be observed.

For photos of ringworm in horses, google search "ringworm in horses photos" at www.horsebarn.com. Good luck and best wishes.---PetCaretaker

Usually it is a lump in the shape of a circle or "ring", it can make the horse really sick, but most of the time won't do much harm and will go away eventually.
