Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a fungal infection. As I see through the query you have already used medications to treat the fungal infection. I suggest to continue the medications as prescribed by your GP.

I also suggest using a anti-fungal medication such as Diflucan for three days.

Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
