Hello,
I suggest you to do a culture of fungi which identifies which organism is responsible for the infection: To find out the source of infection and to select the most suitable treatment. According the result you can use a topical antifungal for 4 weeks More serious cases, and infections in the scalp, can require oral antifungal pills.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
