. My PCP has diagnosed the rash to be a fungal infection, and prescribed a 30 day regiment of Grifulvin V (oral) and to apply Lotrimin A/C topically. I have been using Lamisil A/T for the prior week to seeing my doctor, with little or no improvement.
Though I just began the Grifulvin V yesterday, I question whether the rash is fungal, because there is little or no "scaling" of the skin, and not a defined leading edge of the rash. I also thought originally that it could be a scabal infection, and used a Permithrin treatment 3-4 weeks ago....once again....little or no improvement.
If anyone has any input, it would be greatly appreciated. The itching
/ irritation is almost unbearable at times, even with using the antifungal cream, Gold Bond medicated powder, and Benedryl orally. I've attached a photo of the rash.
