What is this rash on me?! Pics included

I've come out in this bizarre rash! It doesn't itch, isn't raised or scaly and I feel otherwise well. Ringworm? Absence of itching and scalyness made me uncertain.
What is wrong with me?!

Tick bite?

Tick bite?

Maybe-is it possible to get bitten without knowing though? I haven't been anywhere that could be considered a risk for tics I don't think

Ringworm or discoid eczema

Ringworm

Pityriasis.

cocksstrideintheevening · 22/08/2023 23:23

Yep pityrias rosea. I'm just getting over it.

SugarPlumpFairy3 · 22/08/2023 23:23

Did it start with one large ring and then develop? Have a look at https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/pityriasis-rosea/.

My dd had it and I assumed ringworm. It started with a patch on her back and then more developed. Dr gave her medication to help clear it up.

Pityriasis rosea

Read about pityriasis rosea, which is a relatively common skin condition that causes raised, red scaly patches on the body.

Ringworm!!

YawnyMcdawny · 22/08/2023 23:26

Ringworm. (Not an actual worm!).

Use an anti fungal cream to clear it up.

Said rash appears to have almost faded completely overnight. It's all very odd!
