Slightly raised spot rashes
by Soccerguy87, Nov 02, 2009 02:22AM
a month or two ago the back of my inner thigh had a 2 inch slightly raised rash appear. It has a red ring around it and normal skin tone on the inside but very slightly raised. I thought it was just a scrape or chaffing rash at first but it hasnt gone away and there are more spot rashes like it appearing on my left thigh ( like little versions of the big one) and just recently my right thigh has started to have little similar spots appear. When i take hot showers also they increase in redness and start to burn not painfully but irritating. Please help me.

I am becoming a broken record, but it took me a long time to have a similar condition diagnosed as granuloma annulare. Your bump looks larger than the multiple ones I suffer, but GA is characterized by reddish raised rings of tiny bumps, with a depressed whiter area in the middle. Some of them are VERY itchy. :(
It looks like granuloma annulare but the possibility of pityriasis rosea and nummular dermatitis also has to be explored. It presents as a ring of small bumps which may burn or turn itchy. Mostly no treatment is required but in severe cases topical and oral steroids may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries. Kind regards.
