How do i know if i have ringworm? i have one round, raised, itchy area onn my arm, but it is not red at all. it itches randomly.

Sounds like: It sounds like ringworm. If it is raised on the edges and has central clearing, it probably is. This is caused by a dermatophyte and can be treated with anti-fungal cream.
