Please try to keep the area clean and dry. Avoid scratcing, please trim your nails. Try to avoid tight fitting clothes. Use cotton clothes. Jeans and inner clothes should be washed regulalry and dried in hot sun. You could just use talcum powder for the time being until you consult dermatologist. Please avoid self medication as it can sometimes worsen the problem or it could go into a recurrent chronic mode.

Antifungal tablets can be prescribed for 1 or 2 months depending on the severity of the fungal rash. The cream has to be applied till the rash completely disappears and for a week more. For proper assessment and treatment, do see your l...more

Fungal infections on skin are the most common of all and are effectively treated with homeopathy. I advise you to stop allopathic treatment as it gives temporary results only with lots of side effects, it will recur once you stop medicines and homeopathic treatment cures it from roots without side effects. no chance of recurrence. you can consult me online for homoeopathic treatment without side effects.

Oral antifungal drugs. These drugs are often the first choice because they clear the infection more quickly than do topical drugs. Options include terbinafine (Lamisil) and itraconazole (Sporanox). These drugs help a new nail grow free of infection, slowly replacing the infected part.
