    I had a rash spot similar but it spread after two weeks all over my body. mine was from covid no itching burning just made me insecure as i was on vacation and it just kept spreading. i wasnt sick at all but my spot also started on my butt.

      the spot on my butt was the biggest about size of nickle/quarter and then smaller spots started popping up on my legs/butt/arms/stomach/chest. wasnt in any pain and no creams were working to get rid of it.

      Have you tried antifungal cream/shampoo? Circle rash is distinctive of fungus. You can ask your pharmacist's advice and then decide if you want to see a doctor or not.

      no anti fungal creams/rash creams worked on mine it went away randomly after almost two months when i had it. got tested for it and only test that came back was covid antibodies but i wasnt sick at all so they chalked it up to a reaction from getting covid
