What is Pityriasis Versicolor Overview and Treatment about?

Pityriasis versicolor is a common fungal skin infection caused by Malassezia yeasts, characterized by hypopigmented or hyperpigmented patches primarily on the chest and back. The condition is influenced by factors such as humidity, immunosuppression, and genetic predisposition, with diagnosis typically made through clinical examination and KOH wet mount tests. Treatment options include topical agents like selenium sulfide and systemic antifungals such as ketoconazole and fluconazole.
