Red Clusters Of Raised Bumps With Brownish Center Popping Up On Arms, Abdomen, Thigh. No Relief From Creams For Ringworms. Any Ideas?

I have these red clusters of raised bumps pop up on my upperarms. They start to have a brownish center after about a day. They dont really itch. The only time they do is after I shower or when I am exercising. One of the doctors I work with prescribed me some cream----the same used for ringworms. But they are still popping up. Now on my abdomen a couple on my thigh, and forearm. I have an appt with my dermatologist on Wednesday. Im just frustrated because I dont know what it is or what it is coming from.
