Hello , I understand your concern. I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious disease specialist, answering your concern. Patient of CLL can likely to develop the fungal infection. I also suspect the fungal infection in you. Exact diagnosis can only be possible if the visual examination has done. Steroid is contraindicated in the treatment of fungal infection. So in my advice you should check for the second doctors opinion. If it is fungal infection line of treatment of it is totally different. you have to take the fluconazole tablet instead of steroid. you can also use medicated soap containing antifungal drugs. Please take the above treatment under your doctors guidance. Maintaining the cleanliness is equally important and should be strictly followed. It equally helps in treating the infection as the anti fungal medication do. It may be sometimes contagious so avoid sharing the household with other family members. I will be happy to answer your further concern you can contact me here or you can contact me on bit.ly/DrArun We wish you a best health at healthcare magic. Thank you, Dr. Arun Tank
