If tinea cruris is not improving after treatment, it may be resistant, recurrent, or not fully cleared. Keep the area dry, wear loose cotton clothing, and avoid steroid creams. Do not continue or change antifungal tablets on your own. Consult a dermatologist for re-evaluation and appropriate treatment adjustment.
