Tinea cursis
I have been diagnosed with the Tinea Incognito in my groin and inner thigh area. and was advised oral medication and ointments. Though its subsiding but Its itching like anything. So I was suggested to apply lulimac twice a day with Desowen cream . So can I apply it more than recommended like whenever there is itching or if not can I apply coconut oil. Please advise.
