Ring worms will form a "ring" at the infection site. Skin lesions are irregular welt type eruptions. Both can itch, burn, and spread. Both require medical assistance.

A ring worm is a type of skin lesion. Ring worm is a fungal infection that starts as a small bumpy reddened area and starts to spread out and as it does, the inside clears so you end up with a bumpy circular rash. You can treat it with over the counter medicines like lotrimen, tinactin, or blue star ointment. Any anti-fungal ointment or cream with work.
