Brief Answer:
Use a moisturizer

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Antifungal creams specially those that contain steroids can cause skin thinning/ atrophy as a side effect. This atrophy is reversible specially if mild and early, however, severe atrophy may not be totally reversible. Nevertheless you may use a moisturizer e.g Cetaphil moisturizing cream, twice daily for a few weeks to help with the skin recovery process. Avoid using any steroid based OTC antifungals. Only use prescription antifungals.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance
