Of course, I'm not a doc. But my primary care treated me to ringworm for months before sending me to a dermatologist who diagnosed this...

I had that when I was in law school. The lesions were all on my upper body - mostly the torso, some on the neck and face. That's really the classic pattern from the information the dermatologist gave me at the time. (But then, that was a long time ago.
Plus, IIRC it did respond well to the steroid/salicylic acid cream he prescribed.)
