Eczema?

Hi, can anyone help identify this? I would say my daughter suffers from it maybe 3 times a year. Always the same leg, never any changes in soaps, washing powders etc. It comes up over a day or two and then I struggle to get rid of it for her. I have tried various creams. Not a lot helps. I don’t think it’s ringworm as I don’t think she would get it three times a year or so 🤷‍♀️

Sorry, I don't know if it is eczema but my DC gets eczema particularly bad at this time of year, always in the same places and has tried a range of different creams but nothing really shifts it.

it looks fungal, does it go paler in the middle as it moves outwards?

I’d suggest popping to a pharmacy and asking for advice there. It does look fungal to me too.

It looks similar to patches of eczema I get mostly inside the elbows mine tends to be when I’m stressed
