Fungal infection
My 3 months old baby has rashes/redness in skin creases as shown in the pic attached. Doctors said it's fungal infection and asked to use candid cream thrice a day for 5 days. It didn't help. Then I was asked to use desowen lotion 0.05% and atarx drops. It thinned my baby's skin in the area of application. It was better after that but the redness has come back. It's there for more than 2 months now. First the skin creases turn pink/red, it becomes dry and flaky and finally peels off. It keeps repeating. Any advice? I apply Cetaphil cream and leave it open as much as possible.
