Urgent.tinea versicolor (on back of neck and 2 on side of neck ) cause and treatment??? just applied an anti fungal cream "clotrigmarole cream usp1%"
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Trivial illness: A few percent of folks develop minor skin lesions from this ubiquitous fungus which has several names. If the diagnosis is correct, you'll be free of the lesions on your neck soon; look closely and see whether you don't have them elsewhere. Some folks manage this by taking one ketoconazole tablet monthly before breaking a sweat exercising. Best wishes.
