Quadidrem contains a potent steroid (Betamethasone), which may sometimes mask a fungal infection or worsen it if used for too long. You should stop using this cream and consult your doctor to identify the specific fungus and receive a more targeted antifungal treatment. Keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing in the meantime.
