Brief Answer: Fungal infection Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for photograph. Its looking like fungal infection. This cream will work but there are better creams like clotrimazole and terbinafine available to cure fungal infection. Better go for these instead of ketoconazole. Let me know if you have any other doubts. Thank you
