A course of oral and�topical antifungal�medicine eg, fluconazole or�terbinafine�is required to cure one of this disease. You might not be taking proper dosage of medicine or may be applying wrong creams over it. Some creams contain multiple ingredients and may infact worsen the condition, due to large number of side effects. Remember to wear loose cotton clothing specially when at home. Avoid hot humid climate, keep the affected area dry and avoid synthetic innerwear. If any other family members are affected, they must also be adequately treated to prevent recurrence.
