Ringworm can definitely leave a scar. I've never seen a ringworm lesion that big on a human though. I hope it's really healed (and that it's just ringworm!!!).
I've had it more than once (seems you build an immunity but there are several varieties) I've been a foster mom for kittens with ringworm lots and lots of times. (my specialty, as it were)

Yes, I started treating it with steroid creams and that fixed the itch and the rash seemed present, but dormant. A week after i stopped using the cream, it it became inflamed and itchy. Then it took on classic ringworm appearance. The symptoms have responded well to lamisil, but it the appearance hasn't.
It has occurred to me that the lamisil is keeping it moist and not allowing the area to exfoliate... Thoughts?If you don't grow where you're planted, you'll never BLOOM - Will Rogers
