Suggest Treatment For Small Bumps On The Hand

HI, So I ve had Jock Itch for a while now, and I m worried it has spread to other parts of my body. I recently shaved my pubic area with a razor, I rinsed the razor in Isopropyl alcohol and soap and water and then used it to shave my face a few days later. I m worried I now have Tinea Barbae and I just noticed very small bumps on the palm of my hand and am worried I have tinea manuum also

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello, you need antifungals in the form of tab Terbinafine 250 mg daily for 4 weeks and apply sertaconazole lotion on the lesions locally twice daily, Also take tab Cetrizine 10 mg at bedtime and apply Clotrimazole 1% powder locally for the jock itch.
This regimen will take care of ur jock itch, tinea barbae, manuum , all at the same time.
Just rinsing ur razor in isopropyl alcohol isnot enough for disinfection, there is a contact time for disinfection in these agents.
Wishing you a faster recovery
Regards
