Get a diagnosis: There are many types and causes of skin rashes. Several types of inflammatory conditions of the skin, allergic reactions, and sometimes bacterial, viral or fungal infections can cause rashes on the skin. Insect bites can also be the cause of a rash on the skin. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.

A spot on the ankle : Should go away with a topical...If it is indeed fungus. You scan try another antifungal agent or consider a sampling of the tissue.
