Hello and welcome to HCM,
The ointments prescribed to you are anti-fungals.
Thus, it is confirmed that the lesions were indeed fungal rash.
Appearance of similar lesions on back of neck is also indicative of fungal infection.
However, before you start with anti-fungal treatment, it is advisable to consult your skin specialist for clinical assessment of new lesions.
Once it is confirmed that the new lesions are also due to fungal infection, you can use anti-fungal treatment.
