Hi, having a fungal infection since two and a half year seems to be a very long time. I would definitely need to know which cream have you been applying. From the sound of it seems like you must be using a steroid based cream as chances of recurrence is high once you stop using the cream.

Meanwhile use an anti fungal dusting powder after shower daily. Abzorb or Flucos dusting powder would help
