You need to take a course of oral and topical anti fungal medicines.
I would recommend you to apply ketoconazolesalicylic acid shampoo twice weekly and take antihistaminic like tablet cetrizine 10 mg once daily.
Also, take tablet fluconazole 200 mg twice weekly for 4 weeks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
