• fatigue;
• fever;
• lymphadenopathy (rare).

In adults, the disease is the emergence of symmetrical sections with tumors that have a pink or pinkish-yellowish tint. Swelling slightly raised above the level of the epidermis and can be localized to the back, chest, upper and lower extremities.

Before pruritic elements are formed, there is a "parent spot" having a diameter of 3-4 cm on the skin, bright pink color and scaly surface. Further neoplasms - smaller (1-2 cm in diameter) have exfoliating rim bright pink hue circle.

Generalization of tumors on the body takes place over several weeks, after which their number is decreasing. On-site spots appear whitish or pinkish areas which over time disappear, leaving no trace. Pink Ringworm in humans, the symptoms of which 1 stage appear on the face, it is rare.

In most cases originally involved in the defeat thoracic, after the eruption spreads in the steel area of ​​the body.
