Hi, Thanks for query to My HCM virtual Clinic.
I studied all details of your query.
I understood your health concerns about causes of small itchy lumps on neck.
Causes of small itchy lumps on neck.-
After reviewing your query facts,In my opinion these 2 may not be correlated with each other.
In my opinion these 2 small lumps seem to be from mosquito bites or insect bites overnight,as you noticed these lumps overnight in the next morning.Earlier day you were not having them.And these 2 small lumps are itchy and might be getting redder due to handling of the lumps and itch reaction.
But still as you are worried and as you already have Chronic ringworm on your leg,chance of getting it on your neck needs to be ruled from Dermatologist if need be,after the consultation from your family doctor.
Hope this reply would help you in resolving this complex query and anxiety with it.
