I'm dealing with this stubborn fungal-like infection on my buttocks for a couple of months now. I've been using an ointment to try and get rid of it, but it's just not going away. It hasn't spread, which is a relief, but it's still there like it just won't budge. What could be the reason it's not healing? Is there something else I should be doing or using to finally get rid of it?
