Hi, please stop using clobetasol cream since it is a steroid and not appropriate treatment for fungal infection. Use micogel at night for a few weeks instead and see a doctor if there is no satisfactory response.

Its important to evaluate the cause of white patches. Whether it is infective (like fungal infection) or dermatitis or something else like vitiligo. Depending on the diagnosis you may require different treatment. Please consult a dermatologist for personalised advice.
Hope this helps.

Hi
it is mandatory for you not skip even a single day of your antifungal treatment (neither the capsule, not the local applications).
Also, it is important to treat any other family members if they are having the same complaints, because fungal infection can spread from one to another. Nevertheless, if needed, you can have a direct consultation for the same if you need it.
