What Are The Recurrent Reddish Brown Spots On My Thighs?
Hi I have some freckles-looking spots (reddish brown) that appeared on my inner thighs. The amount of the spots differ on days. Days when i can stay at home and stay cool (fan or aircon) it can significantly subside. Days when i go to work the whole day (at higher temperatures) it seem to cover a bigger area. I had a full blood count and the report is normal nothing unusual. How do i remove the spots? What are the spots?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion, it could be Pityriasis versicolor as freckles occur on sun exposed sites only. So, do apply Clotrimazole/Sertaconazole cream twice daily along with clotrimazole dusting powder for 2 weeks. If you do not get any improvement in 2 weeks, do consult your Dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Siva Subramanian.
