Hi,
The problem you have might not be due to candid cream but there mightbe having super added bacterial infection giving oozing, spreading in surrounding area.
In my opinion you require one course of antibiotic medicine for 5 days.
After infection subsides, every thing will be alright.
At present apply antibiotic cream or triple action cream.
Afterwards you can continue with candid cream.
Keep local hygiene clean, dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
