Question

I'm really worried because I keep getting these ringworms and pustules only on my face, especially in the summer. I've had ringworm three different times in the last six years, but always just on my face and not elsewhere on my body. I'm not sure why this keeps happening. Could it be something specific to facial skin, or maybe it's related to something else I'm not aware of? Any advice on how to deal with this would be really appreciated.
