Thanks for the video! I've had TV most of my adult life - it flares up every year during the summer. I have some protips for anyone dealing with it for the first time. First, make sure you sanitize your laundry!! Dermatologists never seem to think of this but especially underwear, bras and bed sheets can harbor excess yeast and cause it to regrow. A laundry sanitizer (Lysol makes them, in the detergent aisle) and/or Borax in your wash cycle helps a TON. When mine flares I wash 3 days a week with Nizoral & Selsun Blue together, two days a week with Katalis soap (salicylic acid, zinc oxide & sulfur), and two days a week with Noble Formula 2% pyrithione zinc soap. Make sure you leave the lather on your skin for at least 2 minutes. Daily I apply clomitrazole (Lotrimin) and tolnaftate (Tinactin) creams. Since mine are usually pink from inflammation and a little itchy, I also apply Noble Formula hydrocortisone + pyrithione zinc cream. The Katalis soap and the Noble products are available on Amazon. Hope this helps someone!!
Thank you!
Love this video!! I've dealt with T.V. for at least 2 decades off and on, and needless to say it's an annoying battle lol for the majority of my life I've lived in TX and FL, I naturally have oily skin, and it always seems to ramp up whenever I've had to stay in bed for days at a time, like when sick or post surgery, and haven't been able to stick to my usual hygiene routine. It's always nice to know you're not alone when dealing with difficulties in life, even if the issue isn't a major life problem. And of course all the treatment tips are appreciated and welcomed!! đđ
Thank you Dr. Dray. I've been experiencing persistent tinea versicolor and had inconsistent application of the shampoo. I learned my lesson and have really tried to let the shampoo lather stay for a while. Also my dermatologist NEVER mentioned how fluoconazole is released through sweat. I'm gonna sit down and talk to her about that and try to get my oral prescription renewed.
The pictures really help. Thank you so much for helping me and so many.
Omg thank you so much for all your info! I get so upset when mine flares up, people like to point it out and ask âwhatâs that on your skinâ. Because it comes and goes so often!
Pevaryl Foaming Solution really works for me!! But can be expensive because itâs only in little sachets, so Iâm definitely going to try the shampoos! Thank you again!
Loved this video Dr. Dray!! I always love the Fridays Q&As!! Thank you so much for all the time you take for the reviews for all of us, and the caring it takes to do so!! Please enjoy the rest of your Day!! Aging Thank you!!
Happy Friday!
Dr Dray Thank you so much!! I hope you are having a Beautiful Day Dr. Dray!! xox
Just watched this video about a month ago and realised the rash my 35 year old son has had on and off for at least 25 years actually has a name. He has visited his doctor many times over the years about the rash (which covered pretty much his whole body) and has been prescribed various creams but the rash always comes back. Within the first two days of using Nizoral shampoo the rash has disappeared and so far has not come back. We live in a rather cool climate (Scotland) but my son does do a lot of manual work, plumbing, joinery, tiling etc so does sweat a fair amount and he just can't believe the difference in his skin. Long may this continue and thanks so much for this and all your other informative videos.
Did you use the OTC Nizoral or prescription strength? Thanks!
I had one spot on my back couple years ago. I do work out a lot and get so sweaty. I got treated from it and now I use dandruff shampoo mask over my back once a week to prevent it from coming back.
Your advice is saving my life and sanity. Thank you for your wealth of Knowledge â¤ď¸
Happy Friday! I hope your conference is going well. Stay comfy and thank you for this q&a. Sending my love to you, your mom, and, Tybee!!!
Happy Friday ms Leda
I came to this video after noticing white discoloration marks around my shoulder and upper back. I was super concerned about these marks since Iâm an avid sunscreen user. Thank you for informing me about this.
Thank you for posting this video. My husband dealt with this for two years, he went to see his doctor he said it was hives and sent him to an allergy specialist. He almost put him on prednisone because they couldnât get rid of it. I stumbled across CZcams video talking about this condition, so I just mentioned to my husband to use the Nizoral shampoo and within a week it was going away. He was so happy because he dealt with this for two years and was so insecure about going swimming and being out in the summer with short sleeves. Both doctors that he saw never referred him to a dermatologist, both said it didnât look fungal but they never tested it.
thanks for watching!
Hi Dr Dray. I don't have this condition but I have seen it on other people. I never knew the name though. I thoroughly enjoy learning anything pertaining to medical conditions so these wonderfully educational videos are right up my alley. Thanks so much. I hope you're having fun at the conference and get lots of free goodies. đ
Thanks for watching!
I have this, had it on my chest for a couple years and have only just started treating. Now I know what it is, it doesnât bother me now. Thank you! 𼺠Iâm an excessive sweater too unfortunately so it was bound to happen to me.
I really like the pictures! It helps visualize what condition you are talking about. Super helpful!
thanks!
Just wonderful, I've been looking for "
how to get rid of fungus on the skin
" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Levijarntly Easy Improvement Blaster - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my buddy got amazing results with it.
Where are the pictures?
Been trying everything for about 10 years, since soap, shampoos, plants, oral pills (Itraconazol 100mg/15pills) and here's the result I needed: 14:00
Nice!
Did anyone freak out when they first saw the white spot and thought it was vitiligo?
Same
Yes i was so tense when i saw the white spots i thought that it was vitiligo but later on i realise that it is tine versicolor.but its going on n on no medicines are working don't kniw wht to do feeling so depressed
Yeah didn't stop looking online to see if it was something else
@@khansheefa7719 has it gotten better for l you now?
@@Yung_bdt Not yet
i got rid of my 6 year old tinea versicolor by eliminating sugar (except those from fruits )from my diet and also by applying virgin coconut oil, it took 3 months to completely heal
Coconut oil?
â@Sabahat Munawar Coconut oil worked for me, too. It's a natural anti fungal.
â@@KC-ed1dj hi, do you guys know how you have Pityriasis versicolor and not somthing else? I have 4 white discoloration spots on my face and they've become more noticeable when I tan. They are small without bumps or anything like that but all are on my left and right cheak (above and below cheak bone)
â@@katiewashington1333 apka ye remover hogya
Does yours itchy?
Youâre a wealth of knowledge! I appreciate all the time you put into these videos. Thank you.
Do you have tips on vericose veins?
thanks! i have a video on varicose veins
Dr Dray do you have a video on capillaries on cheeks? Mine came up after an extra stressful year combined with Alabama HOT Summer âď¸ & not enough SPF Iâm sure.
I have also been taking HRT due to a partial then full hysterectomy when I was 29/30.
Thank you in Advance!
I've had this for 2 weeks, but thankfully treatment is working (slowly)
I tend to get rashes in the summer. Doctors can sometimes misdiagnose these rashes. I had one Doc take blood to check my platelet levels....for a sweat rashđ
Thank you I was looking for a video like this! Very informative video. :)
Thanks for watching!
Actually, regular coconut oil has lipids which feeds fungus. You should be recommending MCT oil from coconuts that doesnât contain C12. Iâve been struggling with skin fungus for sometime.
Love Fridayâs Q & A. Would you be able to do a review on â cold soresâ. I know mine are triggered by stress , itâs mostly the itching and burning that bother me . Have a great weekend Dr. Dray,
this is a tad late, but you can take lysine supplements as a preventative and to make them go away faster. some people take lysine everyday or every other day because they get cold sores frequently. i take it when i feel the âitching.â if i take it when i feel the itching, i rarely get an actual cold sore. if i forget to take it beforehand and get one, i take lysine three times a day, and the cold sore goes away super fast. talk to your doctor to see how much lysine you should or could take.
Yes. Very helpful. Thank you, Doctor!!! Hope you have a great weekend!!
thanks for watching
Almost finished with my current moisturizer. Planning to order Cosrx PHA Moisture Renewal Power Cream Moisturizer. Thank you for including asian skin care products in your reviews, Dr Dray! Excited to try it đ
thanks for watching
Can you please do a video on pityriasis rosea? Iâm currently going through it. Love your videos! đ
Self-diagnosed myself with this over the summer when I started seeing fawn-like white spots. Silver lining: it got me to stop tanning lol. Thanks for the video!
Me too!!
Hi, which of the products did you use?
Ramires Garcia Serafim it seems it completely went away on its own for me, but I did try the dandruff shampoo trick, which helped!
Alicia V do you need a prescription for serafim?
Karla O I was replying to the user name above me âRamires Garcia Serafimâ haha! I just used a dandruff shampoo and then it went away on its ownđ
I was just recently diagnose with Tinea Versicolor when i was pregnant. I had these big brown spots since the age of 16, my dr gave me cortisone cream to put on it but when i got pregnant w/baby girl, i was awful, i had it everywhere! When i take a shower it turns bright red and it flakes off in shower. On the bright side, it does not scratch and i cant give it to someone. I've seen a dermatologist and she only took a look and said nothing could be done. That i had to live with it. I can do the selsun treatment if i wanted to. So i went to my dr and he said that i can have meds but its dangerous to give on a daily basis. My daughter is 2 and she has allergies to creams like back pain cream, johnson products, baby oil, baby powder, olay moisturizing cream so i cant put medicated cream on me. Im happy i dont have it on my face, its only on my neck, breast, belly, armpit and on the bikini line so i can hide it but it sucks in summer! Thank god i live where we only have 3-4months of summer loll The only wierd thing is that i have very dry skin, i taught only oily skin could have thatđ¤
Iâm so glad I saw this video. Iâve had tinea versicolor for about two years now. The doctor prescribed me some of the shampoo I didnât think it was working so I stopped. Another year went by and the spots had spread to my shoulders and chest. I was over it by then one of my friends asked me what it was and I lied because, I was embarrassed and didnât know what I had. Then, last week I was doing some research on it and found out I had tinea versicolor. But online the treatments werenât really clear to me. I looked it up on youtube and found this video and I used Selsun 1% because thatâs all they had in stores and it worked instantly my skin looks better already. I would like to thank you Dr.Drayđđž
Hello I'm facing a challenge with that too, it's so amazing how instant it worked for you, can you please help me with treatments you took to heal
Very informative and helpful. Got more out of a CZcams video than an appointment. Great work!
Thank you so much, I've been thinking so much about this and mine started spreading.
I love u dr. dray!!! ... u such a sweet heart. Thank you for all the advise !!
I was misdiagnosed with tinea versicolor when it is actually PMH, progressive macular hypomelanosis. I only started treating this PMH on my early 30s with benzoyl peroxide and Clindamycin. I had this skin condition when I was teenager and had really affected my self-esteem. My skin is getting better now with over 2 months of applying those two topical creams.
All Iâm saying is, in case your white spots are not really responding to anti-fungal creams, it may be PMH which is caused by the bacteria that causes acne.
Did you actually have acne? Because anti funguals creams donât seem to be working but I donât have any acne âŚ
@@FeedMeJuice Yes, I do have back acnes also. You can google images of progressive macular hypomelanosis and see if that is similar to what you have. If it is, research and dig deeper.
This was so helpful
Thanks for the great video, I'd like to know.
Selsun blue with 1% selenium sulfide OR
Selsun with 2.5 % selenium sulfide.
Very helpful....I had a lot of doubts on this...now I'm very much clear....thank you
Awesome video, love the houston shoutout.. just moved down and was exciting hearing the reference!
i love h-town
Thank you so much for your information! I had many spots on my face, arms, and back. You cleared my skin with your recommendation of the Vanicream Z-bar! The only small issue I have is still getting itchy when I sweat. Again thank you so much!!!! đ đđ
Where did you have this? I have it all over my back.
It got rid of it for you?
Thank you so much, Doctor! Very helpful information.
I have tinea versicolor on my face and chest but Iâm going on holiday in a week. Iâm worried that itâll spread and become more visible if I go in the sun. Is there any way to make is fade within a week or so?
Thank you soooo much, suffered with this for 20 years! Xxx
oh my gosh, I've had this for more than a decade, and I always just assumed I tanned really weirdly! thanks for teaching us!
Homeopathy cures it permanently i am using it and its working and btw for my asthma i used homeopathy for 4 months from jan 2 2021 and im better than my past 6 years
@@putinxfighter2875 Definitely not true!
â@@putinxfighter2875hello, i believe in homeopathy, i would kindly ask you if you could recall the name of the remedy you were taking to heal tinea versicolor?
I had it on my scalp behind my left ear and near my neck. Nizoral did not help me, but the selsun blue extra strength made it go away. Now I use it once a week.
How long did it take for the fungus to go away
@@rebekahrichards4630 very fast. I applied it directly to the white patch of fungus like a cream and left it on all night by the next day it was gone by 50% , did this for a week and it was gone. And then maintained it for a few weeks by washing my scalp with he selsun blue shampoo once a week.
31 now and I have had this for 15 years! I remember being made of of on my 16th birthday for the spots. I saw a dermatologist a couple weeks after that, and they really had no idea what it was. But thanks to the Internet, I know what it is and how to treat it. :)
How do you treat it I had it for years am in my 30s now been to a dermatologist no results
I developed this right before I started my PhD. I was really into working out. Had a great physique. Then, I developed tinea versicolor (my brother has it, too). And this made me suddenly not interested in working out. And really hate my body. I hardly ever went out with my shirt off during the summer. It's a chronic condition for me. I've had effective treatment with a pill that is very liver damaging (can't drink or take other meds with it). I've had nominal success in a preventative way with Nizoral 2% shampoo (ketaconizole). I was also suggested to smear it on...and then exercise for thirty minutes for deep penetration. First time I talked to a medical professional--a nurse--about this, she laughed in my face. That was at my university at Student Health. She said her husband has it and I just better get over it. Horrible bedside manner.
This is such a timely video for my husband and I. He has been struggling with this rash on the top of his left thigh for several months. He was given the Fluconazole, an antifungal cream and a cortizone cream. However, his dermatologist did not tell him how to use the creams, so he ran out of his antifungal cream ten days before he could get it refilled again. So I ordered more of it online, but the rash still looks red and angry. Then I watched him apply the cream by roughly rubbing it in. I think he is probably aggravating it.
I am so excited about the dandruff shampoo treatment and several other treatments you suggested.( I have ordered the Vanicream shampoo.)And, that it can be hard to get rid of, and may come back. His was definitely from wearing non-breathable track suit pants to excersize in, then sitting around in them. GREAT VIDEO!! You are most certainly a much better doctor than the one he went to!
Thanks for watching!
I'm not sure who had this condition first but do you think this might be contagious? ? I'm only asking since you mentioned that both of you guys have this condition.
Yesenia R. Yes, very. It turned out to be a yeast infection on the skin!
@@Patti-1962 so basically it's like an STD?
Mine gets super bad in the summer, like hot pink raised patches. In the winter they turn white and very flakey and dry.
I feel that it is always a struggle when you have big breasts to keep that area dry.
Hopefully you can make a video for tips for that. Thank you!
Or does the b.o video apply towards the chest with the skinsmart spray antimicrobial
Love your videos Dr. Dray,. Please, please do a video on alopecia.
Hi dr Dray! Thanks a lot for another useful video! Have a great weekend!
Thanks for watching! I hope you had a great week!
Why does mine seem to change colour,one day it can be bright pinkish red and look really aggressive,another day it can almost look brown,and another day it can be barely visable.??
I think this is what I have but mine isn't scaly, it's just lighter spots all over my body but mostly concentrated on my legs
I've had brown patches on my chest and under my breasts since I was like 12, I'm 27 now. I lived in Houston. Now I live near the desert in Mexico and I started to get it on my back a few years ago. Thank you for informing us on how to treat it effectively.
Iâve had it since the start of 2020- end of 2019 and honestly so glad im not alone đĽş
Did you end getting it treated? What did you use if so?
I noticed mine around the same age too and I'm 28 now, I'm hoping this treatment works!
Hi, i recently developed Pityriasis versicolor on the back of my neck. My concern here is my work environment. I work in a chemical plant with exposure to Nickel vapours mainly and working with metals such as cobalt anodes. I had water contact the back of my neck from a moving overhead crane that moves along a line of chemical baths, I believe this is what might of triggered the flora to change as i noticed flaring and colouring a few weeks after but now its spreading down my upper back. Could this be true? Thanks.
Great video. That's exactly what my dermatologist told me
I have this horribly on my back right now. I use Nizoral shampoo. Is soothes it for sure. But I also have eczema. So the pink scaling inflammation is... ugh. Not knowing, I was using a coco butter oil gel and unknowingly caused this fire storm.
Your videos helped me to understand products that I should always stay away from. Even when Iâm not having a flare. Thank you so much
Am I going to have to have a prescription, or will this eventually get better with Dailey treatment? Thanks in advance
I'm 33 and I get this a lot!! Especially in the summer. I also get really dry scalp, does that relate? I'm not oily, but I guess in the summer I sweat in my chest, midesection area... Mine get pink, but mainly white. It really is a bummer that it takes so long for the non pigmented areas to go back to normal. Great video. Thanks!
thanks for watching!
I know this was done a year ago but hopefully Dr. Dray will see this. I've been using the dandruff shampoo as body wash as recommended by my Dr. after a round of prescription cream but I haven't been using it like a "mask" . I will start doing that to see if it will be more effective. My question is about a shampoo bar called Noble Formula 2% Pyrithione Zinc Argan Oil. It's vegan and lower waste. Do you think that would work as well as the Vanicream Z bar? Thank you in advance. I know you hear this everyday but you have changed my skincare life! And you're a lovely person, too :-)
As someone who suffered with acne, still with dandruff/psoriasis and still with pityriasis versicolour, I noticed that when the doctor gave me Doxycycline tablets my acne healed AND my pityriasis versicolour disappeared after about 2 rounds of antibiotics. I have tried Fluzonacole and Selsun plus other stuff, with absolutely NO effect, but the Doxycycline definitely worked for me. I told my mom and sisters about it too amd it worked for them. It comes back if you sweat a lot and need to take care of your skin while it's gone. Keep the area dry etc.
Not every doctor gives it to me, even if the patient knows what works for them. So I really hope they give it to you.
Maybe your patches are not caused by fungi. I was misdiagnosed with tinea versicolor when it is actually caused my P. acnes bacteria. My skin condition is called Progressive Macular Hypomelanosis or PMH. It is treated by anti-biotics like what you mentioned but I prefer the topical antibiotics/antibacterial creams like Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide.
Thank you so much Dr. Dray. Great info. GOD BLESS.đâ
Thank you for your video Dr.Dray. I recently found this on my face, and wondered if the shampoo trick works for that as well? The antifungal creams only seem to work for a bit but the warm weather in Texas seems to make it flare just as I thought it was dissappearing.
I have had chronic versicolour since puberty, and im now 35. Since first treatment, I have used over 150 boxes of pevaryl foaming solution. I find it 10x's better than blue or gold selsun or any of the shampoo variants. If I let the rash develop for more than a week or so after it starts, it becomes so intensively itchy and dry, feels like my skin will rip apart. The yeast takes out the elasticity of my skin. The rash develops over my chest, armpits and arms.
Im a pilot in the airforce and wear a flying suit daily, working in hot environments, working hard against g forces. I am drenched daily from flying duties. Despite how rapidly it develops as a result of my profession, I am lucky to recieve free pharmacy, and treat it with peveryl foaming solution monthly which prevents it developing too much.
If you need a more aggressive treatment option, pevaryl foaming solution is the best.
Where do you buy this?
Can you put on lotion after using the shampoo? If so what kind do you recommend?
Hi I have a serious question. Iâve had this on my back for over three years now and before I noticed it, my hair started to fall out and my scalp is really itchy. Could this be because of Pityriasis versicolor? Help please!!!
This was so helpful, thank you!!
thanks!
Excellent advice, thank you very much Dr.

@@Lightning-jc6re After treatment, it can take a couple weeks to maybe a month or two for the spots and patches to disappear.
@@CodeEpsilon thx for the response, you're definitely right it's mostly gone now for me even though I only used the treatment for a few weeks.

@@allenjanvalie I use it once a week and leave it on for 20-30 minutes. then rinse
Great video. So informative. I get it on my lower back and my mum told me to use dandruff shampoo but this video explains the key ingredient. My son has some on his back cos of summer, so will get it treated with dandruff shampoo with zinc pyrithione. Im soo addicted to your channel and learning so much. Thanks.
Weirdly enough, mine donât itch, just the spots! Itâs been dormant for years and last year it popped back up and now itâs out of hand on my shoulders and Iâm noticing itâs making itâs way to my chest! What I donât want is for my face!

My husband, Glenn, has been diagnosed with pityriasis versicolor and has been taking 250mg
of lamisil orally and using ketoconazol 2% shampoo for 3 weeks. His back is still covered with red splotches. It is stings, itches, and burns sporadically, but chronically. He has a history of sensitive skin and sporadic bouts of shingles. We found your video to be extremely informative, but you did not mention his symptoms. Are these symptoms common? Your imput would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

I've never been a first commenter! Just wanted to say you are wonderful and I LOVE your videos!!
Thanks for watching
Thank you for this video! I find no advice anywhere for this and itâs something I have struggled with for years! So helpful!!!
How often do you use the nizoral? Can it be used with one of the creams you suggested?
I had this condition for years on my neck, back and chest and I used an ointment called Bactroban Mupirocin. I think itâs to treat dogs but it really worked. Iâd apply it every night and wash it off in the shower the next day. Didnât take long to go away and it never came back.
It is not only for dogs. It's for humans too
Aside from the patches, are bumps on the skin also common with this condition?
Dr Dray, is mineral oil in lotions a trigger for TV, Ive read that it does and it doesnt? I avoid puting any lotion in the creases of my breast because thats where my TV is located, its very hard to keep that area "DRY" cause its constantly hot and sweaty there, i dont really see any way to avoid it except baby powder but even that has its limits , i sweat really easy too and the humid hot weather in VA does not help
Thank you for this video!!! I have a question, I had a laser hair removal session and after that, I started to see these white pigmentation spots on parts of my body. Could this be Tinea versicolor? Can the laser trigger Tinea versicolor? I can't seem to find an answer anywhere! I never had it before the laser session! however, the laser clinic said laser doesn't cause hypopigmentation, but it may have triggered tinea versicolor! I am so confused!
Hi! I am self-diagnosing, and am guessing I have this--but it just on my face. On my jawline, cheeks and around my eyes/eyebrows. What is a good treatment for my face, especially for sensitive skin?
I have (apparently) had this went to multiple doctors and now a dermotologist and they told me itâs tinea versicolor but to be honest itâs making me miserable Iâm covered in white spots and Iâm so miserable and depressed. Do the white spots go? They were red before and now Iâm left with these :(
Hi Dr.Dray do you recommend the DHC cleansing oil from Costco?
Thanks Dr. Dray! If I could, Iâd bring you a proper red apple every day. Youâre such a great teacher. đđ
thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video Dr Dray. Have you already shared your insights about tea tree oil?
Tea Tree Oil in skincare czcams.com/video/1RWvcwIwrEw/video.html
thank you DR. Dray, question : is it okay to use the ketoconazole shampoo and retinoic acid at the same day
Can I use both the anti-dandruff shampoo(in the shower) and prescription creme(after I shower)? Will it speed up the treatment process? I was only prescribed the creme BID for a month and then SID after the first month.
What would you recommend as a body moisturizer when dealing with this?
Happy Friday Dr. Dray đ

Maximum Strength Selson Blue 2% selenium sulfide IS AMAZING. I rub it in the rash until the shampoo turns whitish and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes and wash off in the shower, daily for about a week and it's gone!

Thanks Dr. Dray! I recently moved to a more humid climate and have gotten TV đ˘ my doctor from back home didnât suggest oral meds as you have to monitor liver enzymes. Also Iâve been putting Nizoral on my body where I have TV but should I also wash my hair with it?
I was recently diagnosed with Pityriasis Rosea and Pityriasis (Tinea) Versicolor. I was prescribed Ketoconazole shampoo 2% as well as Ammonium Lactate 12%. I just wanted your thoughts about this and would it be helpful or harmful to my skin. Thank you so much.
Hey Dray, I have red spots in my groins (before all over my body except my legs, feet and head) for almost a year now, most dermatologist I spoke thought it was Rosea but the last dermatologist thought it was Versicolor, I'm getting crazy that I still don't know what it is... Is there a possiblity that I can show you the spots so you can maby see what it is? I really want to try more interventions and it seems you know much more than the dermatologist I spoke to. Greetings Jesse
Thank you so much Dr. Dray! Is there any way to speed up the process of getting rid of the post-inflammatory body hypopigmentation?

Hello Dr. Dray
What do you think about this idea. Adding anti dandruff shampoo on skin and then exercising 30 minutes or so to start sweating. And then rinsing off? Would that work well? Or not good idea
Can you recommend some good face humectants for applying before the moisturizer?
After the inflammation is treated, can i put tretinoin in the stayed white spots to treat them faster?
