question: On August 3, 2013 my right ankle had a triple break. After surgery and some physical therapy, for several months, There appeared some strange looking round rashes on both sides of the ankle in the area of the surgery. They were from 1 inch in diameter to 2 inches. I treated them with several kinds of creams and then my daughter got some cream medication for ringworm , as she thought they appeared similar to ringworm circles! Today, I noticed that the one very large circle has developed into 5 or 6 small circles! along the line of the large circle! I really appreciate any information you can give me. By the way, the surrounding area does itch when I massage the area. It does not itch when not being touched in the area. The ankle swells.
