When a person has a broken bone, it takes about 6 weeks for it to mend. Usually in a puppy, they may take the splint off in 3 or 4 weeks. That does not mean that the puppy can be rough-housed after the splint is off. Perhaps your household is a little too rough for a small puppy and you might consider finding a new home for her and getting a larger dog for yourself.
As for the ringworm, it is a fungus and it can take different lengths of time for it to go away. A lot of times it returns and you will need to start treatment each time it comes back. As for how long it will take for treatment to be effective, you should ask your vet.

wow... so much caring of a dog... if you cared about a man that much, he'd take care of your dog instead you having to go through all that yourself.
