hi guys well it started with a big patch on my side just down from my arm pit, i thought it might be fungal so got some cream in the next couple of days it spread. it went to my chest shoulders neck, and arms and a patch on my leg, i went to the doctors and he said straight away it was pityriasis rosea, and you just let it run its course and it will go in 6-8 weeks, i dont have a itch at all but becuase its on my neck i have to wear jumpers even though we are having some warm weather for once in the uk. the spots now are get dry skin around them is this a good sign? i have calomine lotion will this help any ideas would be great thanks, oh and can i make it spread by touching the are and then touching another area?
