Hi Pooja According ti ur complain may be it is fungal infection. So apply luliconazole 1% with candid dusting powder Itraconazole 100 two times after food Tab Atarex 25 at night Its also spreading in family members due to cloths. So maintain hygiene and wash cloths separately If you get relief from this medicines then continue it for 1 month and consult again.
