Answer 1

Have you seen a doctor for this, preferably a dermatologist? He can order a corticosteroid cream or ointment for you or give you a corticosteriod injection. Another option is to freeze the lesions. He can also order PUVA, psoralen plus ultraviolet, a special light therapy.

Usually, treatment is not given since granuloma annulare will go away on its own within two years but dermatologists do treat it to make the patient feel better. There isn't anything you can do on your own so please make an appointment with a dermatologist.
