Am 18 years old. I began to notice small patches of discolouration on my face around july, 2018. Then it was faint, perhaps unnoticeable. I treated it and sure enough the patches disappeared. It came back again fully around december. This time more severe, and it spanned a good amount of my face. Even eyebrows and around the ears. It left. Thanks to ketoconazole and clotrimazole. I have been battling with this condition ever since. It comes and goes. I have rubbed many topical creams. Recently, a large portion of both side of my checks have peeled off. Is unusual. And it has done so two times within a space of five weeks, while I was still on treatment. Should I discard the nizral cream and shampoo I have started using? What is my illness? Short I stop rubbing topical creams on the affected area? I need help please.
