In the month of march I started taking treatment for tinea corporis on my arms. I barely had 2-3 patches but after I started the treatment with a fungal infection expert I could see the infection spreading on my arms. The doctor prescribed me oral terbinafine for 6 weeks and he kept on changing my topical ointments after every 15 days but I don't know what is the issue but it didn't seem like improving it only got worse. Now I am using kz cream. My skin looks better but it still itches me a lot. Any suggestions what should I do or how can I improve symptoms?
