I'm curious about the medicine EDVITAPRO and what it's used for. Does it help reduce scars? Also, could you recommend a good cream for scars?

Consider consulting a dermatologist for reassessment, as itraconazole and griseofulvin are effective treatments; alternatives or additions may include topical creams (e.g., terbinafine, clotrimazole), oral antifungals (e.g., fluconazole, posaconazole), or laser therapy; also, ensure you're using an antifungal soap, keeping the affected area clean and dry, and avoiding sharing personal items to prevent reinfection.
