I've had this white patch on the back of my shoulder for about 20 days and it's turned black after I used melanocyl ointment. It's peeling like dry skin now, and sometimes it itches, though it doesn't really hurt. The skin feels a bit sensitive. Can someone help me figure out what's going on and how to treat it?

That could be fungal infection as this needs evaluation visit Dermatologist for appropriate management,do not attempt to scratch it or squeeze it.
