I had this accident about two and a half months ago, and now that the scab's gone, I'm left with this white patch of skin where the injury was more severe. I'm wondering if this will heal naturally. Also, this whitish skin has some red marks in places, and in some areas, the skin is raised. Should I be worried or is this part of the healing process?

View allI've had this semi-circle shaped rash for about 45 days now, and it's red and itchy when I touch it. It's right between my neck and chest, and I'm noticing it might be getting a bit drier. Is this just a common skin issue, or should I be more concerned about it?
The semi-circle shaped skin rash that is red, itchy, and situated between your neck and chest for 4-5 days may be a case of ringworm, also known as tinea corporis. To treat this, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the rash does not improve or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
