Hello,
As per your case history you are suffering from Pityriasis Alba, my treatment advice is:
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with SPF more than 30.
2. Apply a Tacrolimus 0.03 %ointment twice daily on the affected skin.
3. Take a vitamin A supplement once daily for 3 months.
If the problem persists, then consult a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
