HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

At present you are using topical antifungal creams and oral medications for itching.

You may want to consider an oral antifungal if the rash is wide spread.

As the infection resolves the scars would heal and improve. This can sometimes take a few weeks to months for scars to completely resolve.

I hope this helps
