Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.

The discolouration of skin takes a little while to resolve. Usually it goes away on its own without any treatment.
However you can apply a combination of mometasone furoate cream with fusidic acid cream twice a day for 10 days. This will be helpful.

Please let me know if I can address any more concerns.

Regards
