Itchy Welts Have Appeared On Neck And Torso. Spreading And Itching. What Are They?
i have three different itchy welts that have appeared on each side of my neck and one on my torso. they are oval and seem to be spreading especially if i scratch them. i also have tinea versicolor but these welts are a little more raised than the patches of versicolor which are a reddish brown. i ve used hydrocortisone cream which aids in the irritation greatly, but do bites of insects usually last three days or more?

hi dear, first of all i would like to know whether u have taken any treatment for T. versicolor. the condition u mentioned here seems like tinea corporis. u better take tab fluconazole 150 mg once a week for four weeks. that is total 4 tab. it is safe and u ll be totally fine. even if u have taken this tab earlier, u need to repeat it
