Seems like ringworm.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I see the photo you attached in a previous query. It looks like fungal infection of the skin known as ringworm.
I think you should take antifungal creams found in pharmacy over the counter like lamisil or clotrimoxazol cream or micostop cream.
You can use one of them to apply over the skin.

it doesnt look like ringworm from the pictures i searched. its not perfect circle
Brief Answer:
No perfect circle need to be ringworm.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again. The ringworm doesn't necessarily cause a perfect circle. I think it most probably is ringworm also from the fact that hydrocortisone cream didn't work.
