Skin nightmare
Hi, I have been diagnosed with tinea versicolor on my face I'm currently halfway through my course of itraconazole after shampoos have failed to eradicate fungus. I'm still noticing a couple of fresh spots and I'm wondering if it means it's still active or can they still show up when the fungus is dead?? Please help

fungal specially tinea takes quite sometime to fully resolve. keep visiting your dermatologist to analyze if the treatment is working or not.
