How Are Keto B Cream And Livafin Cream Used For Infection Near Penis?

Earlier for infection near penis area I used Zimig tablets 400 mg and Canestan S cream.. It works but after 8 months it again happened. This time I had shown to a new doctor. He has advise me to use keto b soap then coconut oil and then keto b cream two times a day and Livafin cream 2 times in night. And also advise me to Take terbafine tablets daily like zimig and on alternate day take AF400 fluzonale tablet. Pls advise me on the below treatments.

Hi. Zimig tablet does not have 400 mg of terbibafine. Its 250 mg. From the medicines taken, i think you are being treated for tinea cruris. Are you having ring like red/scaly lesions on thigh? I cant understand why the doctor used Keto B. Plain Keto could have been more beneficial. The steroid in keto B gives quick relief but makes the disease worse. Right now, stop all creams (especially creams having B, GM and Plus in their names). Use Onabet cream twice daily and Loceryl cream once daily at night. Use abzorb dusting powder after drying the thigh area. Discard old under garments and get a set of new ones. Hope it helps
