White spot near upper lip

2024-09-17 10:26:49
My son aged 12 developing white spot near upper lip. Visited nearby dermatologist. He viewed with a normal torch and said it's pityriasis alba and prescribed tacrolimus and eumosone to be applied for 30 days one over the other. Applied just twice and could the spot more visible than before. Should we continue the creams?
