Suggest Treatment For Fungal Patches In Groin, Leg, Arm

i have fungal patches in my groin, leg and arm. i have been using dakatrin for about 2 months now and the rash dosnt seem to be going at all. i have been refered to a dermatologist but that could take ages. the rashes seem to be getting bigger even when using the cream. the doctor said that the rash in my groin is ringworm and the rash on my leg he is not sure about, they both look the same to. can you reccomend anything else i could try? thank you

Hi,
Before applying your medication, Wash the affected area with soap and water, and dry thoroughly.
consult your doctor and Apply antifungal cream like Terbinafine hydrochloride 1% cream beyond the border of the rash.
Maintain hygiene and wash your clothes and bed linen in hot water and dry under the sunlight.
Regards,
Dr.Riyanka
