Brief Answer:
Post-inflammatory hypopigmentation, nothing to worry about
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic,
I have gone through your complaints as well as reviewed the attached photographs.
I can appreciate some hypopigmentation along with hyperpigmented patches.
It seems to be post inflammatory hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation after prolonged itching.
There is nothing to worry about.
On hypopigmented patches, you can apply Tacrolimus 0.1 percent ointment twice daily.
This will help in resolving it.
It is a prescription medicine and you need to see the doctor in person to get it.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
