Description of Ringworm:

Ringworm of the skin starts as a red, scaly patch or bump. Ringworm tends to be very itchy and uncomfortable. Over time, it may begin to look like a ring or a series of rings with raised, bumpy, scaly borders (the center is often clear). This ring pattern gave ringworm its name, but not every person who's infected develops the rings.

Please get at least a little information before making baseless conclusions and potentially frightening this poor person who simply has a (minor) fungal infection.

This happened to me when I had taken a sleeping pill before, and sometimes it happens when im really really tired.

My eyes were open and my mind was awake but my body was completely asleep, couldnt move. I dont think its anything to worry about though. =]

Hello...I haven't been on here in awhile.. Well, that little burn I had in the past seemed to go haywire after the prescription my doctor gave me. It went from that oozy mess to a black mark....and this seems to be permanent.

I saw this a while back "your post" I did not reply, but the whole time I was asking myself, "I wonder if she is familiar with spider bites?"

Not saying thats it, but now that you say there is blackness involved, I really lean towards spider bite more so now....

No its not a spider bite. I thought about that too when the doctor was filling the prescription, but she said a spider wasn't involved.

So what was the diagnosis? It didn't look like any tinea I've ever seen. And what was the med prescribed, if this isn't asking anything too personal. If you prefer it not be for the world's consumption, you could message to me. I'm really curious, having abductions running long in my family.
