Your problem is most likely a fungal infection (tinea) that keeps coming back because of steroid use. The cream you are using, Neo Clobenate GM, gives temporary relief but actually worsens and hides the infection, leading to recurrence and darkening of skin. Keep the area dry, wear loose cotton clothes, avoid sweating, and do not scratch. Consult a dermatologist for proper course and complete cure.

  1. Recommendation:

    • Consider using a different antifungal cream like Ketoconazole or Terbinafine, as persistent itching may indicate a resistant fungal infection.
    • Ensure the area is kept dry and clean to prevent further irritation.
  2. Usage Advice:

    • Apply the cream as directed, usually twice daily, and continue for at least two weeks even if symptoms improve.
    • Avoid using Clobenate-GM for prolonged periods due to potential side effects.
  3. Consultation:

    • If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and possible prescription of oral antifungal medication.
