Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your situation. Clotrimazole cream should have helped if there was a fungal infection. But your problems could be related to decrease in hormone support that is not unusual at your age. I would suggest you to try applying cod liver oil over the affected area. I think that it will help in faster healing. You may also take Evion 400 capsules (Vitamin E capsule) once a day. It should be helpful. Be sure to keep the area clean and dry.
Hope that helps.
