What Do Round Rashes On The Legs Indicate?

Hi. My girlfriend, 30, has two large ring shaped “bruises” that have mysteriously appeared on her legs; one on the front left thigh and the other on the right rear thigh. The first one was noticed last week and the other today. What are these? They don’t itch or burn and have almost no raised edges. I don’t think it’s ringworm.

Hello,

Possible causes are erythema multiforme or ringworm infection or erythema marginatum or insect bites or eczema etcetera. Until the examination done, it is difficult to say what it is? Please consult your dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
