What the heck is on my leg?

 

[Northern Voice]

Psoriasis?

 

[Joe Summer]

Athlete's foot? Get some antifungal cream and apply it twice a day for 2 weeks.

 

[Summerofgeorge]

Might be ringworm 

 

[guru_007]

MRSA 

 

[Chemical X]

shingles

 

[jvdesigns2002]

Maybe insect bites? Have you been doing work in your garden or backyard?  

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Might be ringworm 

Looks a little dark but yeah my guess was ringworm / some sort of tinea

might have to see a dermatologist, I have had it and OTC Stuff usually doesn’t work so well

 

[NutterButter]

Thats clearly ball cancer.  

 

[JbizzleMan]

:reported: That’s NOT your leg!

 

[Ron Swanson]

Might be ringworm 

My guess as well. The ring is well defined in the top thing. Treat it like a jellyfish sting.  Urinate on it 3x per day for 5 days.  Then go see a real doctor or at least a video visit.

Your pal Ron, not a Doctor.

You might want to check with what the others are saying in regards to ringworm then. When I saw them—I was thinking allergic reaction to some sort of bites—but if they aren’t that—the others might be right. If you you aren’t allergic to Benadryl—you might want to try taking one to see if it helps. If it does—it would support the allergic reaction theory.

You should post in the covid19 thread, all the doctors are in there.

 

[Man In The Box]

MRSA 

I’m no doctor, but I don’t think it’s this. At least I hope not for OP’s sake. I had the unfortunate pleasure of catching MRSA five tears ago, and it didn’t look like that. It started out basically as pimples/ingrown hairs and quickly turned into boils that were the size of golf balls. These look more like insect or bed bug bites to me.

Another vote for ringworm.

You seem to be in Boston.  Looks like ringworm.

Wikipedia - just don't choose the band.

It's not MRSA. If it's itchy, it's probably ringworm. Another possibility is granuloma annulare.

If you see a doctor, they'll likely give you an antifungal cream - one of the drugs that end in -azole, or Lamisil (many of these are available over the counter). You'll need to use it several weeks. If that fails, they may try a steroid cream before referring you to dermatology. The academic thing to do is scrape the skin lesion and look for fungi after a KOH prep, but most primary docs will just treat.

Good luck.

Are you still going in to work? Still on a wrestling team? Own a dog?

Ringworm..

 

[Hawks64]

Psoriasis?

Yeah looks similar to the patches on get on my calf.

 

[Northern Voice]

Yeah looks similar to the patches on get on my calf.

Yeah same, FWIW, my doctor initially misdiagnosed my psoriasis as ringworm, so the consensus in here could be right as well.

So what Karen down the block complained about is true!

Still not funny.

If it's just dry skin, do you know the leading cause of dry skin?
