Re: Help!! Do I have Tinea Versicolor??????

Thanks billable,

Yes...it does look like the first picture..except on a much smaller scale. I have about 4 areas of spot (started with 1!) on my chest area and one small spot on my upper arm. It has not spread anywhere else that I can see. The areas are not raised and look like the skin around it except for the white color. I have been treating for 8 days now with denorex and miconazole but, I read on a couple of other websites that it took 4 weeks or longer to get rid of the infection ! I just bought some anti-fungal spray and more cream so that I could double treat. I just want to make sure it is gone before I stop treatment. I have not tanned since I realized what was going on....is it okay to start tanning again?? Or should I wait longer?? I figured I could keep doing the treatments for another week or two just to be sure....?
