Hello.. I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.I suggest you to stop allopathic treatment as it gives temporary results only with lots of side effects, it will recur once you stop medicines.
Fungal infections on skin are the most common of all and are effectively treated with homeopathy. homeopathic treatment cures it from roots without side effects. no chance of recurrence. you can consult me online for homoeopathic treatment without side effects.
