Need to see: Diagnosing skin lesions is almost impossible without seeing them. You need to see your family doctor to diagnose them or a dermatologist.

Ring Worm?: Tinea corporis (ring worm) often begins as a circular or oval, red, scaling patch. Usually has central clearing with an active advancing border a few millimeters wide. Lesion shaped like a ring. Responds to daily application of topical antifungals. Could also be an eczema patch which can be treated with topical moisturizers or hydrocortizone cream.
