Brief Answer:
fungal infection or bacterial infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Based on the information you have given, I think that you had fungal infection or bacterial infection. As you already tried couple of medications without complete curing of problem, I suggest you to get a physical exam and investigations like KOH mount test to get a confirmation of diagnosis. After this an appropriate medication can be given. A dermatologist will be a good choice for this kind of problems.

To locate one in XXXXXXX you can reach out to our customer care contacts. They will assist you regarding that.

Thanks!
