This recurrent infection is likely worsened by the strong steroid cream you used, which temporarily relieves itching but actually allows the fungus to grow stronger. To cure this permanently, you should stop the steroid cream immediately. Please consult a dermatologist. You will likely need a course of oral antifungal tablets (like itraconazole) combined with a targeted topical antifungal cream (like luliconazole or clotrimazole) for several weeks. Keep the area completely dry, wear loose-fitting cotton clothing, and wash your clothes and towels separately in hot water. Avoid self-medicating, as completing the full prescribed medical course is key to preventing another recurrence.
