Help! Unusal Rash On Arm, What Is It!!!
Posted: 03-21-06 23:56pm

I am 14 years old, and this has been here for a few weeks. Its and usuall small circular rash on my arm, it has these these bumps like goosebumps in this redish circular rash, and there is quite a few of them close together, like goose bumps. It doesnt bother me by itching or pain or anything, im just worried about what it may be. I have a pic, but it may not be that good. Please respond asap!

It said the pic wasn't available.

But I am wondering if it might be ring worm. I had a client a year ago that had a rash that sounds like what you have and it turned out to be ring worm - she didn't have any animals and had no clue how or where she got it but she still had it.

Anyhow, if thats what it is, call your doctor and ask for a prescription for a cream that will clear it right up. If your under age, show your parents and have them call the doctor.

I am not a doctor so I can't say for sure that its ring worm but from your descrpition that is what it sounds like to me. You can buy anti fungal cream over the counter - if you don't see any that says "anti fungal" look for the athelete's foot creams - those are almost always antif fungal.

Anyhow, here's a link about ringworm.

if your parents havent seen the rash I still think they should look at it.
