Abstract
Tinea versicolor is a common skin rash caused by over growth of yeast over skin surface resulting in uneven skin colour and scaling which is harmless, asymptomatic and non-contagious.[1] In this case generally medication used are antifungal i.e. Ketaconazoles systemic and tropically which may lead to many side effects and re-occurrence. In Ayurveda there is no detail explanation but somehow correlated with Sidma Kusta, which is one among the Maha Kusta. Which can be treated by Vamana Karma, Virechana Karma or Rakthamokshana.[2] By this we can say Ayurvedic treatment modalities are utilized according to presentation of disease.
