Are Brown Rings On The Legs Signs Of Ring Worm Infection?
Hi I have had allergies and eczema most of my life. A month ago I got ringworm=(. I treated it with Lamisil spray and after that ran out I started using Tenactin. I noticed the two areas where my ringworm were are mostly gone but for the past few weeks I ve been noticing brown rings in various sizes all over my legs and some on my arms. They appear darker sometimes but remain fairly light. They are not raised and don t itch at all. Is this more ringworm or ??

Hi,
It can be most likely ring worm infection if it's ring pattern. Using ointments containing combination of anti-fungal agents like Miconazole and corticosteroid Flucinolone will be helpful. Taking oral Fluconazole weekly once will be helpful to arrest recurrence.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
