At the beginning of this week I had bumps behind my right ear. At first they didn t itch but now they are starting to. They are starting to spread to my ear and along my jaw line and also up the side of my face. All of this is on my right side and not my left.
You seem to be having Tinea faciei- a fungal condition that affects face, starting from one area and then spreading with lesions that itch.The condition generally begins from an area which either sweats a lot or one where sweat tends to accumulate
You can get relieved fo this problem.
To my patients I advise to use Miconazole preparations locally.
In addition I prescribe Terbinafine tablets which are broad spectrum antifungals to kill the germs
To relieve itching part, i prefer to give Anti allergic like Levocetirizine.
You are requested to keep your face dry and not to share your towels or face articles with anyone.
Hope to hear from you about your recovery.
Best wishes
