Thanks for the query. The condition which you are having is a fungal infection. The medicines are okay and you should follow the recommendations. Fungal infection is becoming an increasing problem due to rampant usage of antifungals. Please see a dermatologist as some extra medications are co-prescribed many a times to treat.
