I've had this medium-sized fungal issue near my upper thigh for the past month. I've tried various treatments like the Gurda tube, but it's still lingering. Could you suggest what else I might try for these types of fungal infections? I'm worried and hoping for some guidance on what I can do next.

I've been dealing with this rash that appears on one or both of my upper thighs for years now. It's not always there, but when it shows up, it tends to stick around for months. It usually starts out as one or two small circles and then spreads to a much larger area over a week or two. It's not painful, just a bit elevated. It never scabs or blisters, though it only itches when I scratch it or something touches it. I find it quite unsightly and really want to figure out what this could be. Any ideas?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
