HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the infection is recurring then you likely need a prolonged course of oral medication combined with topical treatment.
A swab of the lesions should be done to identify the specific fungus and the agents that it would produce the best response.
In addition you may want to consider screening for reasons that may be affecting your immune system and preventing you from healing.
I hope this helps
