Hi, pls stop using fourderm cream. It is a steroid and can worsen fungal infection. Use micogel twice a day for 2 weeks. Please see a local dermatologist for further assessment if needed.

Dear lybrate-user,
you should take anti fungal treatment after a proper consultation from a dermatologist. Treatment may continue for 3-4 months. Regular follow up is required and medicines are changed according to the improvement. It is difficult to comment on medicines without examining.
Thanks and regards.
