What Causes A Round Rash On The Top Of The Foot?

I have a skin rash on the top of my feet, looks like a ringworm, it covers a very large area. My PCN said it is not a fungus. What could it be? It started about 1 year ago and my toenails look very bad. I have thyroid problems and have had to increase my dosage on my synthroid medicine and he also put me on cymel another medication for my thyroid about a year ago. Could this have anything to do with what is going on in my feet?
