I went to the dr and they gave me a topical cream antiobiotic and itch cream. Then I went back because it is not getting better and they don t know what it is. They prescibed an antifungal cream. I am getting very worried.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a fungal infection. I suggest using Clotrimazole cream for local application. I also suggest using Fluconazole 150 mg for three days, one tablet a day. I recommend to maintain a good hygiene.

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

Regards,
