Can I use Surfaz dusting powder with clotrimazole, since I know it's a broad-spectrum antifungal? I'm dealing with ringworm on my inner thighs and just want to make sure it's okay to use it there.
Yes u can continue taking the medication.

I've been struggling with ringworm under my breast and near the vaginal and seat area for a while now. Ive tried a bunch of creams, but nothing seems to work. Its been about six months, and now my baby has it too, and so does my husband. Its really itchy and there are these red circles. What else can I do to get rid of this? Can you suggest anything that might help cure it for good?
Oral antifungal medications like Fluconazole (Diflucan) may be prescribed by a doctor. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent further spread of the infection.
