What is this rash?

Does it look like ringworm to you?

It's me, rash appeared like this all over my chest and torso. Doesn't itch, I feel completely fine in myself, no temperature or change of appetite etc. I've not changed any washing products - clothes or body, haven't been anywhere unusual or eaten anything out of the ordinary.

Google isn't helping much - closest thing I can see is ringworm but no symptoms other than the rash.

I'll pop to the pharmacy tomorrow - no chance of a GP appointment!

Yes or hives but they are usually itchy and hot.

The dry skin in the centre says ringworm to me.

Might be Pityriasis Rosea if it is fairly widespread, which is a mild viral rash that lasts a few weeks

I thought pityriasis too

Thank you all

Could well be pityriasis, have just googled!

Bodies are strange things 😂
