As per your case history, you are having a fungal infection called tinea corporis. My treatment advice is - 1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily. 2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it. 3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days. 4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole, and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
