I visited the dermatologist and she prescribed xyzal , zoterb and ebernet cream, but no improvement after that and then I consulted my normal medical guy, wherein he prescribed cetipen, terbinafine and paxoderm cream. Still the situation is worse as seen in the photos of my right as well as left groin. Please prescribe a better treatment.

It seems a steroid cream had been applied which has caused worsening of infection. It will require a course of oral antifungal and supportive creams. You can visit our clinic. . Dr. Jolly Shah Kapadia DNB Dermatologist Skin Nurture Clinics Mumbai..
