Hello. Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com
I can understand your concern.
You seem to be having a fungal infection called tinea. It usually occurs when there are conditions of heat and humidity.
I would recommend that you apply lamisil cream which contains terbinafine cream over the lesion which would resolve it.
Please let me know if you have any queries.
Take care
Regards

Hello.
I would suggest that you search for pictures online and compare if you like. You can Google for tinea corporis and check the images.
Thanks.
