Recurring fungal infections may indicate incomplete treatment, antifungal resistance, or an underlying cause, such as a weakened immune system, diabetes, or persistent moisture in the affected area. You should consult your doctor for a thorough review and possibly a longer or adjusted antifungal regimen. Additionally, maintain good hygiene, keep the skin clean and dry, avoid sharing personal items, and monitor for any underlying conditions that could contribute to recurrent infections.
