    Exclamation Circular red rash-not ringworm

    Hello!! I'm so desperate for help! I have one .25 inch diameter circular rash on my upper arm, close to my armpit. It has not spread, there is only the one spot. I've been putting on anti-fungal stuff on it but it's still there. It's really embarrassing, and I'm getting married IN LESS THAN A MONTH!!!

    Please, if anyone knows what this might be, please let me know. I'm thinking it might be pityriasis roseae or even eczema (I have a few run ins a year with eczema), but I'm not sure at all how to get rid of it. I'm attaching a picture- it's a little fuzzy but you can see the jist of it. There's no bulls eye mark, and the entire thing is an angry red. Thanks so much for your help!!

    Pic is not clear.. Does it itch? Any other sensation..? How long do you have that rash..? Any change in size ? Are u on any medications..? Any flu-like symptoms..? Have you been to any other places recently..?

    Sorry, the pict is the best I could get. I'll try to upload another one. No itching, no flu, no meds, nothing different. I noticed it a month ago. No noticeable change in size. No different locations. I scratched it once not paying attention and it hurt really badly, and stings slightly when I put the fungal liquid on it.

    Hmm that's weird. Maybe you should get that checked out by the doctor? And for your wedding...maybe you could put some concealer on it to cover it in the meantime?
