HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It sounds like a fungal infection. Fungal infections can respond slowly to treatment.

It can sometimes take 2 to 3 weeks for an area to resolve. If it is widespread then you may need to use oral anti fungals alone or with the topical anti fungals.

You should restart the anti fungal and use it consistently for a few weeks . Add an oral agent if the area does not improve or involves a wide area.

I hope this helps
