Circular red marks

I have 7 slightly red maks on the top of my foot that form almost a perfect circle. The circumference of the circle is the size of a dime. I went to bed fine, and woke up with the marks. The marks don’t itch or hurt. I can’t find any informaton about the marks. Can you help.

Answer #1

Could be ringworm? It’s a fungal infection and although usually they are only one single ring they occasionally come in the form of multiple rings. It’s sometimes itchy but not always. It’s pretty contageous by skin-skin contact and by sharing towels, clothes etc and sometimes will spread. It’s easily treated and will usually clear up with over-the-counter anti-fungal creams like Canesten. If it doesn’t clear up after using that for a few days then you may need to go to the doctor to get a strong cream. If you type in ringworm on google images and if any of the images there look like what you have (it offen varies in appearence) then it is ringworm. If not then funmail me and I’ll do a bit more research =) Hope this helps x
