    Could be just about anything..... Bug bite, ringworm (fungal infection), PR, lichen planus, granuloma annulare, contact dermatitis, or something else. Try an antihistamine and an OTC antifungal cream see if that helps. If not, get a biopsy.

    Hi - my herald patch appeared a few weeks before my torso lit up with the rash. It appeared on my hip and I thought it was a bruise. I developed another bigger patch on my chest too.

    Its been 10 weeks and I still have the rash with no signs of it going away.
