Please help! I am very confused. My skin discoloration began with a small itchy patch on my lower back that later became scaly and then turned very white. Then I began getting white discoloured skin on my neck and then it spread all over my body.
Not all the white areas are itchy though, they are just white. I do have a few itchy areas that even look bruised on my body. I went to a dermatologist who prescribed me with 2 different types of cream, one for the first white patch on my lower back and then one for the rest of my body, and they did not work. I have started the phototherapy treatment 2 weeks ago and I'm going 3 times a week, and I'm up to almost 3 min per session as I’m a little bit on the fair side and my skin burns easily. I saw a naturopath who put me on a gluten free diet and intravenous vitamins weekly for 5 weeks. He told me that I might have skin fungus but the only way to check is to get a biopsy?
I've started using selsun blue as body wash as well just in case.
I also want to add that this has spread throughout my body very quickly, I am about 50% covered with discoloured skin and it all happened in less than 1 year.
Does it sound like I may have both vitiligo and Tinea Versicolor?
