How can I cure white spots on face?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 23-year-old male with a height of 5 feet and 7 inches, weighing approximately 138.89 pounds. I am experiencing the presence of white spots on my face, and their occurrence seems to be growing progressively. Currently, I am undergoing treatment for a fungal allergy located in the chest area. Please provide me with guidance.

Hello,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I can understand your concern.

This appears to be a mild form of seborrheic dermatitis. It is advisable to avoid using oil on the scalp or face, as this condition is associated with fungal infection of the skin. Please follow the treatment regimen I am providing:

  1. Use AF-K shampoo (containing Ketoconazole and Zinc pyrithione) three times a week.
  2. Apply Candid-KZ cream (Ketoconazole) locally twice a day.
  3. Take tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg twice a day.

Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with them, and take the medicines with their consent.

I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.
