What do people think this is?

It looks like ringworm, on my inner thigh...

But I also got this rash on my back on the same day...

So confused. I thought it was from the supplement 5-http I took for the first time the night before, but now I’m not sure

The back rash looks like possibly an allergic reaction. Not sure what to think about the one on the leg. I don’t know anything about 5-htp without looking it up.

Found this on 5-htp and allergic reactions https://www.drugs.com/sfx/5-htp-side-effects.html

I’m trying to remember what I was taking when I had a red rash on my back that also wrapped around to my front - between my chest and belly button.
It wasn’t bumps or anything - just all red

I think I was treating bart at the time with Rifampin and mino

Yours’ look like two different rashes.

I spoke w/ my rheumatologist. He felt that the rash on the leg was fungal, and the one o my back an allergic reaction. I was worried about a lupus rash since i do have such a high ana, always makes me nervous sad

The rash i think must hvae been from the 5-http i took, only thing that i did differently and it says online it can cause an allergic reaction. WEIRD coincidence to notice that and the ringworm at the same time

I get hives sometimes I usually try a fungal cream on them to see if it makes a difference.
