I have this problem for alomost a month and a half. Its very itchy and i can see the red rash spreading. Its now on three different parts of my body. I have used creams to control the spreading but it is not working. Its on my back, lower abdomen and near the leg joints. Its shape is not regular like ringworm. The skin infected area feel dry.
