I'm really worried about this recurring fungal infection I've had for the last 10 years. It mostly flares up on my thighs, and it's really frustrating. Do you have any suggestions on how to manage or prevent it?
This type of fungal infection in the thighs can be treated with antifungal medications. I recommend using **Clotrimazole cream** twice daily on the affected areas for at least 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking **Fluconazole** tablets once a week for 4-6 weeks can also help in treating the infection. It is important to maintain good hygiene and keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent recurrence.
