  5. I've been dealing with a stubborn fungus infection on my thighs. I've tried several ointments like Quadridrum and Ringguard, but they didn't help much. Fourderm seemed to work for a bit, but then the infection came back. Recently, someone suggested Derobin, but it just gave me allergies and made my skin turn red and painful. I'm really worried about what's going on. Do you have any advice?

It seems like you have been experiencing a recurrent fungal infection on your thighs. Since Fourderm worked well for you initially but the infection recurred, you may need a stronger antifungal medication. I recommend trying a combination antifungal and steroid cream like Lotriderm. Apply a thin layer of Lotriderm cream on the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
