Fungal infection in neck

2025-08-04 16:24:26
Experiencing fungal infection over the neck since three weeks. I was applying candid cream for nearly one and half week. Then switched to luliconazole cream 1% for about two weeks. The infection got less in between but again it has started increasing and spreading more.

Since you are self medicating there is high possibility that you could be misdiagnosing sweat dermatitis as fungal infection. Get yourself checked by a dermatologist and then start the proper treatment

Fungal infection requires anti fungal treatment for a long times like 3 months to 6 months depending upon the degree of infection involved. Kindly consult for better diagnosis and management.
