[NP-Clinical] help from derm experts

[Theodore Scott]

Fluconazole is OK, Itraconazole is a little better.  But before any oral
meds (usually expensive) please do a KOH prep.  Lots of conditions mimic
tinea.

How do you treat tinea corporis with fluconazole? Or what is the best way to
treat? I have tried the topicals and it improves but returns. I haven't
actually done a scraping but it looks very fungal. What are your thoughts?
