Hi. It's best that you see a qualified dermatologist in person or even can consult online. Fungal infections must strictly be treated without using any kind of steroid based combination creams. Also avoid tight clothing and maintain good hygiene. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal, Therapeia Skin Hair and ENT Centre, Bengaluru.
