Q: pityriasis rosea

Hello,

I had pityriasis rosea over 4 years ago and disappeared very nicely after 3 months leaving no scars. The last few times I have been out in the sun i have circular patches on my trunk that do not tan. I wanted to know if this is due to the pityriasis rosea I had? Are these circular shaped scrars? Could it be from the cortisone cream that was applied to the patches while I had PR?

Please help

thank you
Lisa
