What Causes Prolonged Fungal Infection Along With Profuse Sweating?

I have had a fungus (my Doctor says) for about six months. I have tried everything doctor recommended and nothing has cured. I can sit all day in the AC and still sweat profusely between the legs. I have tried calamine lotion, balmex and other fungal remedies. Nothing works. There is now a row of small nodules in the crease of my legs. My VA DPrimary Doctor has never seen it and don t know what else to do!! HELP!!

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having friction between thighs and having more fatty thighs might produce this problem.
If you are over weight, reduce your weight.
Rule out diabetes and thyroid as well.
Spray anti antiperspirant.
Wear cotton inner wears.
Use anti-fungal talc and caladryl lotion.
Ok and take care.
