Suggest Medication For Rashes On The Buttocks Region

Good morning, I am a 55 year old women and I had rashes on both my but cheeks near my rectum. I a applied Lotrimin and within 2-3 days the rash went away but after I got two bumps on the inside of my butt cheeks. I have been putting Lotrimin and it seems to be going down. Is there any other type of medication I should be putting on or what is your suggestion for me? Thank you.

Hi,

You could be most probably suffering from recurrent fungal infection. Because of the resisting nature of the fungus nowadays, anti-fungal tablets such as Terbinafine or Fluconazole are given along with antifungal cream for treatment of fungal infection.

These tablets should be given only by a dermatologist after performing proper clinical examination. So, I request you to consult your Dermatologist for further management.

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