Hello. Thanks for your query The lesions you mention might be due to fungal infection. It is called Tina Corporal. This has a tendency to spread in the form go an oval ring with a clearing in the center. Topical antifungals can be applied for about 2-3 weeks to cure this. However, since there are possibilities that it might be other similar looking dermatological disorders, you should visit a dermatologist before starting medications. The presence of fungus in doubtful cases can be confirmed by an examination of the skin scraping and culture. Hope this is helpful take care!
