Fungal infection

[Aquafit]

Hi there I have had an infection for about 2 months and have been to the doctors several times and the last cream he gave me was betnovate but it doesn't seem to be clearing. Has anyone got any suggestions?

It is very unclear what your diagnosis is so it is very difficult to comment. I would suggest that if any treatment seems to stop working return to your doctor - both antifungal medication and antibiotics can be rendered useless by the growth or resistant microbes, so you might need to try a different medication.

Thank you I will go back to my GP and see what he can do.

I have mixed betnovate with Canesten half and half and gotten good results. You could also try a few drops of tea tree oil mixed with coconut oil. It worked for my partner. Good luck!
