Pityriasis versicolor, also known as ringworm, has a higher incidence in adolescence, youth, and early adulthood, occurring more frequently in places where it is hot and there is a high percentage of relative humidity. This mycosis is not contagious and does not cause pain, but it can cause a lack of confidence and stress in those who suffer from it, since the spots have an unattractive appearance, affecting self-esteem. Its name "pityriasis" means peeling and "versicolor" refers to the changes in tone that it produces in the skin: Pink or beige in summer. White in winter. The fungus that produces it is called malassezia furfur, which can have the form of mold or yeast, lives in areas of the skin with the greatest amount of fat, and only when it multiplies causes infection in people with a weakened immune system or with genetic tendency to develop it. For this, the following factors are required: High temperatures. High percentage of relative humidity. Hormonal imbalance. Excessive sweating. High levels of skin fat. Family history. Weakened immune system. Immunosuppressive treatments. Diabetes. Pregnancy. Poor nutrition.https://centromedicoabc.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/share-imagen-centro-medico-abc.png779406
