I have a dark circular rash on my chest. It sometimes itches and the sun makes it darker, what do I do?


I have had it for over 6 months. It is spreading to my stomach and back. It lookes like big dark birthmark.

sounds like ring worm. i would go buy some "jock itch" or "athletes foot" cream (these are all ring worm just called different thing depending on what part of the body they're on - it's a fungus) and follow directions on the box. usually you have to apply three times a day for two weeks.

little late on this post ,I have a similar rash on my chest and upon searching medical sources on rashes It sounds like Lupus.One rash that is growing in size,The center is clearing up and sun sensitive.Search Lupus images on the net and compare them to yours. Lupus can affect ones organs sometimes Report It

GO TO THE DOCTOR!!!!

It is probably ringworm, a fungal infection. Usually kittens carry this disease. It is not serious however it is contagious to others and to the rest of your body. You should get some antifungal cream to treat it.

ohh tough one. SEE A DERMATOLOGIST
