Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your case history you are having pityriasis versicolor. My treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply an Antifungal cream like Clotrimazole cream twice daily on affected skin.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like Levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral Fluconazole and Terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
