I had pityriasis rosea approximately 4 1/2 years ago, and with treatment it went away in a couple of weeks. I remember it itched badly. Now I have what could be a herald patch or could be ringworm developing on my left arm . How can I tell for sure? I am concerned, as I am trying to get pregnant and don t know if I am yet. I have read that pityriasis rosea can be dangerous in early pregnancy.
Hi dear, usually p rose is not a dangerous condition for pregnancy. don't worry. I l tell u how to differentiate. In a ringworm there is a lot of itching, the center area of patch is clear, bot in p rose the center is wrinkled. Also the edges of ringworm is raised while that of p rose is flat and scaly. Hope this help u. thank u
