Hi,

You have to continue treatment for 4-6 weeks. Maintain good hygiene and avoid steroid drugs that may cause immunosuppression.

Use tablet Fluconazole. Use Candid-B cream.

Also, check if your partner also has an infection. In case there is an infection then it needs to be treated.

If symptoms not improved please consult your dermatologist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
