Is Nystatin Cream Advisable For A Rash With Little Blisters?

My 11 year old daughter has a rash with little blisters under one arm pit only for the last week or so. We have been using hydrocortisone cream but that seems to have made it worse. We ve also tried using an anti- chafing relief powder gel with no help either. Should we try an anti-fungal like nystatin cream?

Dont try any medication that can exacerberate your daughters condition.
Nystatin cream can be tried only after confirming with a doctor its a fungal infection.
