Hi, I m a 17 year old girl with a perfect medical history. I have rings all over my abdomen that look like white rings compared to my skin color. They resemble cheetah spots. They are starting to become more frequent and spreading to my sides and on my legs. It he spots aren t painful or itchy. The skin inside the rings appears darker. Do you know what this could be or give any advice about it?

Hi,
There can be possibility of ringworm infection or fungal infection in yourself. The only precaution you must follow is not to touch, pinch pop or squeeze any of them other wise it can get infected and can cause complications. You can apply clotrimazole cream and can take by mouth the antihistamine Loratadine or levocetrizine.
