Fungal infection
I am suffering from fungal infection on right hand and thighs, I have been taking terbinafine 250 mg and itraconazole 100 mg twice a day along with eberconazole cream. But my rash is not improving, infact it is spreading a little. Should I continue my doctor's treatment since it's only 10 days. How it takes to get rid of rash once treatment starts?

Fungal infection or Ring worm.. when occurs in groin, called as jock itch.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema and infection, its a must to see and confirm the diagnosis for proper treatment..So, please send more clear photos of the affected area for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
