A member asked:
How long would it take to get rid of tinea versicolor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tinea Versicolor: It normally takes two week to resolve the tinea versicolor organisms but it can take months for the skin color to return to normal. This treatment is not curative but controls the organism for a time. You will have to be retreated at a later time as the tinea versicolor will return.
