I've had this on my leg for a couple of weeks now, at first I thought it was ringworm but now I'm not so sure. It's not itchy or bothering me but I'm just a bit anxious so was wondering what you all thought?

Any chance you’ve been bitten by a tick? We thought Dd’s Lyme rash might have been ringworm before it developed into the classic bullseye rash.

It looks as if there are small blisters so it could be shingles. I’d get a pharmacist to look at it.

Do you ever get eczema or psoriasis? My eczema flare ups often look like that, a red circle. But it tends to be itchy and feel dry.

I think ringworm looks different to that as this is more of a full circle shape, not a ring. Ringworm is also very itchy.

If the pharmacy can't help I'm sure the GP can.
It's good it doesn't hurt or itch though.
