Brief Answer:
Fungal infection- Ring worm

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have seen the image you have attached here.

It appears to be due to fungal infection.

Scratching on it can cause spread of the same.

Apply ointment ZOLE over it twice daily after thoroughly washing the affected area.

Do take a Tab Levocet 5mg in the night to get relieved from the itch.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.

Regards,
