For fungal infection you should not use fourderm. It is steroid cream. It makes fungus resistant and leads never ending disease. Go to dermatologist you need oral medication also. Oral medication should not be prescribed without personal consultation.

Fungal infections of skin may be tinea, candidal and many more. Most common infection is tinea also called as ring worm. This needs treatment with oral and topical antifungals. Period of treatment varies from patient to patient depending on the type of response. It may be weeks or months. Expecting cure in few days and running from one doctor to another will cause you more harm than good. Be patient and stick to one doctor. Make sure you are consulting a qualified dermatologist.
