These medicines are good for fungal infections but fungal infections take long to heal esp in nails etc. Hope you went to see a skin specialist because in any case it might be an altogether different disease. Diagnosis is important in such cases. If it is a fungal infection then two weeks is less time. It might take longer. But first confirm by showing the lesion to a dermatologist
