What Does A Round Red Rash On Back Indicate?

Hello. I have a tiny red circle on my back That isn t painful unless my bra rubs against it or I moved around to much. I ve never had something like this and I m kind of scared and not sure what to do. I read about ringworms like the location on the body Where they appear and the symptoms but none of them match up with what I have. Please help.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and welcome.

This could be a fungal infection due to the region being wet quite often from sweat, etc. Use a topical anti-fungal containing miconazole or terbinafine for the next 2 weeks and write back to me directly for any further assistance.

Best wishes.
