Doctor: Hi, It seems that you are having erythema annulare centrifugum.Mostly there may not be any cause.But, some time there may be some cause. Certain food like tomato, contact dermatitis, infections, drugs like chloroquin, penicillin, finasteride..etc,stress,internal diseases..etcVitamin D, steroids , immunomoduators may be helpful.Local application of calcipotriol cream may improve the lesion.Still, you consult dermatologist.I hope you got my answer.Thanks .Dr. Ilyas Patel MD
