Rash: You did not indicate what kind of medicine was prescribed. It's possible that for a steroid cream to cause lightening of the skin if used excessively and for a long duration of time.

Can't say.: Consider asking your father what the doctor said his diagnosis was. We can't diagnose with the available information.
