My 18month old has just developed this patch on his hand today. It doesn't seem raised or itchy at the moment but it's only come up today.

He does have a couple of sore spots on his privates, in the creases which aren't terrible but required a bit of sudacrem to soothe.

Does this look like ringworm??

A pharmacist should be fine for this. They will direct OP to the GP if needs be.
