Hello
Ring enhancing lesion may be due to many reasons like inflammatory granulomatous lesions like tuberculoma,abscess,tumour etc.
You need clinical correlation.
You need further workup like routine hemogram,N.C.C antibodies,PCR for T.B etc.
Treatment depend upon clinical correlation and investigation findings.
Get well soon.
