Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
Fungal infections are notorious to occur and re occur because of their tendency to grow in favoured medium like warm and moist area.
Make sure to keep your private parts area dry and wear cotton undergarments.
Don't share your clothes and towels with others.
Apply ZIMIG cream which is an antifungal cream for 15 days twice a day.
Under treatment of fungal infections also make them re appear very fast.
Nothing to worry.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
