Red spots / ringworm / fungal infection

2025-10-18 02:05:15
Hi Doctor, Last night I started experiencing itching on my upper chest and shoulder. This morning, I noticed red spots in ring-like and irregular shapes (photo attached). The area is painful, very itchy, and the rash seems to be spreading. Could you please help identify if this might be ringworm or any other infection? If it is ringworm, could you suggest the most suitable antifungal and anti-allergic ointment or medication I can use to get quick relief and stop it from spreading?
