Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Spreading rash with dark ring may be due to various causes. But the most common cause is Tinea infection (Fungal infection). Apply Clotrimazole cream for 2 weeks. In case of non improvement, do consult your Dermatologist.
