Discolouration
I was diagnosed with petryasis versicolor 4 months back. By using antifungal creams my itching has reduced and i now i have normal hair grown on that spot but the discolouration is taking too long to fade. It has faded 70% but its taking too long. Should i continue using topical creams or stop them.
