I am 20 years old female and im suffering from jock itch for last 8 months. Doctor prescribed me globet gm cream with antifungal soap and I used for long time. It does not cured my fungal infection and leads to recurrence. Now my doctor advised me to use clobeta gm. My skin starts thinning and im so scared of it. Please suggest me a correct treatment for fungal infection.

Hello, first of a please stop applying clobate gm and globet gm. All these creams contains strong steroid which can damage your skin and will worsen your infection. As you applied all these creams that is why your infection is recurring. We need to start you on proper antifungal treatment to treat this and prevent recurrence. I would suggest you to take online appointment so this can be discussed in detail and tretment can be prescribed. Thanks.
