Hi. I am a 57 yr. old male with a round rash on my torso just above my left hip. The reddish spot (about the size of a nickel) is surrounded by a raised pink area that sort of resembles a pink and red sunny side up egg (the red spot being the yolk and the pink area being the white part of the egg). The rash is itchy and started this morning and has been growing larger all day. Ringworm? Any ideas?
Hello, Thanks for the query, You might have developed fungal infection. The area of groin is very moist and is prone to develop these infections. Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals. Various antifungal powders like candid are available. These can help reduce the moisture as well as control the infection. Please don't use any steroid, it can worsen your conditionPlease meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis. Let me know if you have any other doubt. You can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.https
