Hello,

So Ive had these patches on my body for quite a while now, they seem to be getting worse. Any idea what they might be or how to get rid of them?

    I also had been having such red patches since last many months. They vanish automatically in one or two hours or even earlier with anti allergic Tab Rigix. I have tried my best to fix down the culprit if it is an allergy problem to some food or medicine but failed to do so. Some people get these with Eggs, others with some medicines. I also read some where that it could be due to kidney weakness. Any way, I have taken it as an issue related with my advanced age.

    You may also be having due to Allergy with some food or medicine which you may wish to find out.

    It looks like Tinea versicolor which is a fungal infection. Try getting a dandruff shampoo with selenium sulphide as the active ingredient and washing with that.,working up a lather every day,leave for 3 minutes and rinsing thoroughly . If it doesnt help you may need an antifungal cream.
