Tinea Versicolor

4598601?1245961708
I have tinea versicolor on my lower stomach, groin areas, and lower back. I have been battling it for years with many of the common medicines that are used to combat this skin condition. I also resorted to the traditional route of tea tree oil which only made it spread more. What do I need to do. I know that this is yeast, but do I need more treatment or should I just get cosmetic procedures done so that my skin can look normal and sexy.

Traditional antifungal minus sunexposure does not give desired results.Start with canesten creme but expose to sun for atleast10 min.Take a course of mutivitamins.
