Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM team.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of recurrent white spots on face which is most probable due to fungal infection. It could be due to excessive exposure to sunlight, excessive sweating and humid environment which leads to condition known as tinea versicolor. I would suggest you to protect your skin from sun exposure. Apply turmeric paste as it will give beneficial effects. Use anti fungal cream containing clotrimazole .Apply it twice a day . If symptoms persists for more then a week or get worse consult dermatologist ,so that doctor can evaluate properly to rule out other conditions and may prescribe you oral antifungal or topical steroids. Wash your face twice a day with mild soap.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
