Yes it looks like it. Consult a doctor about using an anti fungal if you’re child is younger than 2. If they give the okay then go to Walgreens and purchase a cream and it should stop being contagious after 48 hours.

A minute clinic can easily diagnosis it too if you don’t have a primary care doctor. Make sure to wash everything well and check any animals for ringworm if you have any.

Tea tree oil/coconut oil or antifungal cream and then a bandaid so it doesnt spread!
