Can ringworm cause discoloration or purplish hues around the affected skin area?
Psoriasis may cause the surrounding skin to turn purple, but specific situations vary from person to person and are related to individual constitution. It cannot be generalized and needs to be judged based on individual physical conditions. If there is a phenomenon of purpura, it may cause the surrounding skin to turn purple. Purpura belongs to a chronic inflammatory skin disease. When it occurs, it may cause erythema, papules, or skin itching on local skin, which may be distributed on the limbs and buttocks, and the duration may be relatively long, and recurrence may also occur. Treatment can be done with vitamin C, calcium tablets, rutin tablets, or urokinase under the guidance of a doctor. Ordinary hand-foot tinea or ringworm usually does not cause the surrounding skin to turn purple. It is a chronic skin disease. The appearance of tinea on the skin may be caused by fungal infection, which may cause local skin itching, peeling, and red rashes. Treatment can be done with itraconazole ointment, binet ointment, or tacrolimus ointment under the guidance of a doctor.
