All About Ringworm In Humans
5. Symptoms
A ringworm infection will typically cause a rash. The rash will usually be located on the trunk of the patient’s body, as well as the legs, buttocks, legs, and arms. The rash will be circular in appearance, and there will also often be a red patch in the center. This has led to the rash often being described as having the appearance of a bullseye.
Ringworm will sometimes infect more than one patch of skin. When this happens, the rings can overlap other rings. The infected areas can become scaly, and the rings will likely be raised slightly from the skin. The rash will be itchy for some people, but it will not cause any other unwelcome symptoms.
