    Looks like a very severe case of Pityriasis Versicolor. Does it itch or cause any discomfort?

      Thanks for the reply.

      Over the years when it comes up, not that I can remember. But this past month I get pretty itchy. I don't get any discomfort other than the need to itch.

      So you have had the rash many times? If a GP confirms it then I would recommend using Alpecin dandruff shampoo every day for a few months to kill the yeast.

      It has come and gone for years. I don't think my skin has been 100% clear of it however. I will ask my Dr to confirm.

      Thank you ever so much for your help!
