Pityriasis alba refers to a skin condition in which there appears red or pink
patches on the skin, initially with fine scales. Afterwards, these patches
clear up leaving behind pale marks on the skin. It is not contagious and
doesn’t spread from direct skin to skin contact with a person having this
condition. Homeopathic medicines for pityriasis alba help to halt further
progression of complaint and recover from spots already present.

Causes
The exact cause behind it is still unknown.
But it is thought to be a type of eczema (low
grade) or related to eczema. Eczema is a skin
condition in which there occurs itchy and
inflamed patches on the skin. Next, it may be
a result of excessive use of topical corticosteroids used for treating
eczema. Other than this people who have excess sun exposure and who
take frequent hot baths are at its risk. People with sensitive skin are also
predisposed to it. Most commonly it occurs in children (between the ages
of 6 years-12 years) and adolescents. Both boys and girls are equally
affected by it. 

Symptoms 
In this condition there appear pink or red coloured patches on the skin.
These are dry and covered with scales. The scaling is fine in these cases.
These patches may be round or oval in shape. These may even be 
irregularly shaped sometimes. The margins of lesions may be well
demarcated or ill defined. The number of spots can vary from 4 to 20 in a
person. Their sizes vary from small to big ones. The patches develop most
commonly on the face (mainly on the cheeks and chin). Next they may
also show up on the neck, arms, shoulders, chest, back and abdomen. The
patches may be raised or flat. These don’t have any attending symptoms
usually. But some of its sufferers may have itching in these spots. The
scaling is most noticeable in the winter when dry air is present and
humidity is low. These patches may last from few months to several years
altogether varying from case to case. On healing these leave light coloured
pale patches on the skin. These look prominent in summers from tanning
