How To Overcome The Skin Rash Problem?

I have had a skin rash on the inside of both upper arms for over 12 months. On one arm it is the shape of a horse shoe and the size of a ten pense piece and It is slightly raised around the edge, pink in colour around the edge and I have 3 more on the other arm but slightly smaller and non of them are itchy. I think they have gone slightly bigger but not much. I have tried all creams like canistan, betnovate and daktacort to no effect.
