Hello.discolouration along with itching only indicates active fungal infection.the antifungals help to relieve from itching but not from post inflammatory hypopigmentation.discolouration subsides by its own or use candid-tv shampoo for short contact therapy and wash it off daily and use canditral tablets 100 mg od for 14 days
