Can This Be Ringworm Or Am I Overreacting?

My dog has a red mark around her nipple. It twirls and goes off to one side. Looks like a bad scratch. I have another dog and they play rough. She also recently was in heat and her nipples remain swollen.

    I would keep an eye on it for a couple of days, measure it and see if over the next few days it gets bigger or smaller, if bigger, take her in to the vet. Hope this helps, good luck.

      Ringworm is a fungus not a worm. Usually get it in hot, humid climates or if you sweat really bad. Usually the crotch area, armpits.
