Infant Having Circular Ring On His Scalp Since Birth. No Change With Medicines

My 4 month old has a circular ring on his scalp. He has had it since birth. It resembles a ring worm but after seeing a doctor and taking meds, there was no change. It is still the same it was at birth. I had a long delivery and his head was very red at birth. The ring is about the size of a dime with the outer edge slightly raised and the center reddish, smooth and "raw" looking. Any ideas?
