Not healing rash
I am attaching a pic. These rashes have been there across different areas on the body like in the groin area underarms, stomach and chest. It's not healing since 28 days. I have been using itraconazole 200 mg and soap and liloconazole cream along with anti fungal powder as prescribed by the doctor, also I purchased homeopathy medicines but not using it. Both the doctos I,e dermatologist and homeapthy doctor said it's tinea corporis/ Ringworm. Also it has not spread to my partner. I just want to know what exactly it is ? Tinea corporis? Eczema or psoriasis or any other rash. Is it a sign of diabetes or an early symptom of HIV.
Continue the treatment exactly as prescribed by your dermatologist.
Keep affected areas dry.
Change underwear and clothes daily.
Avoid sharing towels.
Avoid steroid-containing creams (such as combinations with clobetasol, betamethasone, etc.), as they can make fungal infections harder to treat.
Next Steps
Revisit your dermatologist.
A KOH skin scraping test or fungal culture can confirm whether it is truly a fungal infection.
