I suggest you to follow a few instructions mentioned below. Apply 1 percent Luliconazole cream (topical antifungal) twice daily for four weeks. Apply Miconazole cream (topical antifungal) in the evening for four weeks. Take Tablet Levocetirizine (antihistamine) 5 mg at night after food for seven days. Wash the affected area with Ketoconazole (antifungal) soap for two months. Avoid scratching and rubbing lesions. Wear loose, comfortable thin cotton inners or clothes. Avoid friction or occlusion. Keep the area clean. Avoid activities that cause sweating. Stay in a well-ventilated room or relaxed environment. Apply T-bact cream (2 % Mupirocin) after bath for one month. I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

Do not undergo laser treatment, as laser is not recommended in an active infection site. I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
