Hi there
It takes more than one week for cure.
Will need clear digital pics to make a pucca diagnosis.
It appears you are responding well to Itraconazole and not Terbinafine.
Unclear if a Dermatologist is treating you or is it OTC?
What happened to the "right doc".
You are welcome to consult ONLINE via an INSTANT ONLINE Consultation 🙏
Will discuss and fix a pucca treatment plan.
Health Tips
Treatment needs to be continued for at least 1-2 weeks post clinical clearance.
Treatment of partners contacts and Fomites is essential to prevent recurrences.
