<s>[INST] Hi, I am a 60 year old woman. I had pneamonia last fall and was on Leviquin 500 and Leviquin 750 when the 500 wouldn't work. Then I was on Amoxicillan. Since that time I have gotten underarm Candida. It is driving me nuts aand would like the best aproach to getting rid of it. I have been putting Nystop on it , but it seems to not improve any. I have read so many things like eat fruit and veggies and don't eat fruits and veggies. HELP [/INST] Hello Madam,I understand your concern. I hope that you're not suffering from any underlying cause as you've not mentioned (such as Diabetes). You also have not mentioned the duration and whether the patch is growing or static in size.So, considering your diagnosis is right, I would suggest you to take these precautions and treatment.1. You should keep the area dry constantly and should wear comfortable clothes which doesn't irritate the area or rubs against it.2. You should also take a notice of the size and color of the patch and not whether it is spreading, growing ar changing color.3. Considering the patch you mentioned is candida and you don't have any underlying conditions, I will suggest you to apply a cream with combination of antifugal clotrimazole and a steroid betamethasone.Apply the cream when you're home and take the ablove said precautions.It should help you in 10-15 days depending upon the size and thickness of the patch.If this is not helping you, i would suggest you to visit a qualified physician to make a clinical diagnosis and treatment.Hope this helps.Kind regards. </s>
