Tinea versicolor is a skin disorder caused by an overgrowth of a fungus that lives normally on the skin. It shows up as scaling and bumps primarily on the chest, shoulders, and back. It can make dark skin appear lighter and light skin appear brownish.

Tinea versicolor causes scaly patches of skin that range in color from white to pink to dark brown. The patches are generally seen on the upper arms, back, shoulders, chest, and neck. The patches may or may not itch, but typically tinea versicolor produces few symptoms. When the person gets overheated, the patches are more likely to itch. The fungus on the skin interferes with normal pigmentation. Dark skin may look lighter, and light skin may turn darker. When exposed to sunlight, the patches of tinea versicolor do not tan as well as the surrounding normal skin.

Good hygiene, including regular bathing with a mild soap and drying the skin well with a towel, can minimize tinea versicolor. Once the condition has been diagnosed, the individual can use antifungal soaps and other products as prescribed by the healthcare professional. Tinea versicolor has no significant long-term effects.

Treatments for tinea versicolor include:
1) topical antifungal agents such as azole antifungal creams
2) shampoos such as miconazole, clotriamazole, or ketoconazole
3) oral medications, such as ketoconazole
