Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

As per your case history, you are having a fungal infection called tinea corporis. My treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetirizine twice daily for seven to ten days.
4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole, and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
