What is Tinea Versicolor?
Also called: Pityriasis Versicolor
Tinea Versicolor is also known as Pityriasis Versicolor. It is a fungal infection of the skin. Tinea Versicolor is the result of the overgrowth of yeast known as Malassezia furfur. The usual pigmentation of the skin is affected due to this. Tinea Versicolor takes place more commonly in areas with higher temperatures and highly humid areas. It usually occurs in 5-6 out of every 100 individual. Tinea Versicolor is not considered to be communicable disease as the disease causing yeast is the normal occupant of the skin. The characterized symptoms of Tinea Versicolor are colorful small patches in the affected area, the numbers of these patches ranges infinitely. This fungus actually prevents the skin to tan, hence the rest of the skin tans due to sunlight, the pale spots of the affected areas become more visible.
