Question: I have a ringworm like rash on my upper back leg!.!?
It is not ringworm!. I have 3 places and the main one is as big as the palm of my hand!. Has anyone seen this type of rash before or have any ideas of what it may be!. I does not ooze or crust and does not really itch a lot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
It is probably pityriasis rosea!. If so it is harmless and in a lot of cases it will go away on its own in a matter of weeks!. If you are self-conscious about it see a doctor!. The doctor will prescribe a steroid cream and it should help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I also have a red rash that comes and goes!. It is a circular shaped cluster of little red bumps!. It doesn't itch or anything, but when the rash goes away the area under it no longer tans!! I don't know what it is called, but the dermatologist gave me some steroid lotion that will clear it up in 2 days!. The lotion also gets rid of poison ivy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I recently acquired this gift on my calf!. Turns out I have exczema and it is hereditary!. It did not itch in the begining, but that has changed!. See your Dr!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
