Is this ringworm in DS scalp? Any ideas?

DS is nearly 8 and aside from daily walk/bike ride not been in contact with anyone else bar our household (me, DH and toddler DS) since 21st March.

Was cutting his hair this morning and noticed 3 strange marks in his hair. One is definitely semi circular but the others are just small blobs.

He has a bit of a rash on his torso and legs currently too. Like small raised pimples.

Anyone ever had anything similar? Will ring pharmacy of course but just wondered if anyone has had this before.

He swears he hasn't hit his head on anything though toddler DS does like to wrestle with him a lot.

Just wondering if it is ringworm where on earth he got it from. Asked him if it's itchy and he said he's not sure?! Confused

I don't know if that's ringworm ,but when I had it I caught it from a cat- has he been playing with animals that are out and about?

Hmm he is a bit animal obsessed but I don't think he would touch a cat particularly at the moment. He's been a bit anxious about the virus.

Did you ever find out what this was. My son is experiencing the exact thing except for his rash is on his face.
