You have active inflammatory fungal infection .
Fungus are plants , therefore fungus mainly infect moist areas of our body like axilla and groins .
These infections are recurrent in nature, as when we think that infection is cleared than also there are some fungus which remains intact and when you stop medications it recure.
So treatment will continue even after clinical clearance of the disease.
Another reason for disease recurance is cloths . So wash cloths in hot water.
Eat any thing you want , no need to stop any kind of food.
disease doesn't enter blood stream , so no need to haveany blood investigation .
Consult me online for further treatment.
