@giosov @michellesorbello13 I followed up on the comment from @giosov whose doctor said it was granuloma annulare. It does look like what you both have. Here is a discussion by Mayo Clinic that talks about causes and treatments.

Some scientists say that it an autoimmune disorder because the immune system is involved.
If you haven’t already, I would suggest that both of you add your postings and photos to the Skin Health discussion group. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/skin-conditions/
You may also wish to return to the dermatologist and/or the rheumatologist, with this article in hand, and ask for treatment.
Do you think this is a possibility? Will you also see what the members in the skin health group can tell you?
