Q: I’ve developed numerous red spots and itching on my face. After visiting the hospital, I was told I have rose-colored pityriasis. I took the prescribed medication, but today it seems to have gotten worse. What’s going on?

A: There’s no such thing as “rose-colored pityriasis.” There is a condition called rose-colored pityriasis, which mainly appears on the front and back of the chest, occasionally on the face. It’s characterized by large, rose-colored patches about 0.5–1.2 cm in diameter, with a flaky surface. I’m not sure if the red spots on your face match this description.
