Hello,
These symptoms could be due to tinea corporis of fungal infection. I suggest you to consult a dermatologist and get a fungal culture and KOH examination of the skin scrapings done. Biopsy may also be needed. Once diagnosis is confirmed, topical and oral antifungals can be started.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

If it has an unpleasant smell, I'm going to say that it's some sort of fungal issue.

You would need to see a doctor to properly diagnose this and to get started on antibiotic creams.
