Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide an opinion without examining the lesion. You may try an over the counter remedy for ringworm. If that does not work, it would be prudent to see a doctor.

Ring Worm: Ringworm is a common fungal skin infection otherwise known as tinea. Ringworm most commonly affects the skin on the body (tinea corporis), the scalp (tinea capitis), the feet (tinea pedis, or athlete's foot), or the groin (tinea cruris, or jock itch). http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/ss/slideshow-ringworm
