HI, I am 20 and I have pityriasis alba from a very long time since 4-5 year. What should I do to get rid if it. Can you suggest me a cream or a soap or tablet.

No treatment is required for pityriasis alba. The patches usually go away with time. Your doctor may prescribe a moisturizing cream or topical steroid cream such as hydrocortisone to treat the condition. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe a nonsteroid cream, such as pimecrolimus.
