Who's At Risk
Granuloma annulare is most common in young children and teens, though it can occur in anyone. Females are more likely to be affected. Granuloma annulare also tends to occur within family members. Trauma, viruses, sun exposure, and specific drugs (such as allopurinol) have all been thought to predispose a person to developing this rash, though this has not been confirmed.
