My 6yr old son has a fungal infection on his feet. The Dr. had him on lamasil tablets ( 7 x 7 x 10) and travogen cream after about a month we wont really seeing any improvement. He has him on now elcon ointment and predcort (1 tsp for 6 days) after the first 7 to 8 days we saw a little improvement on his feet. The Dr. still has him on predcort but half tsp for 12 days is it really safe for my son and could the lamasil have done any damages to him?
Hello, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that as the name of the Chat Doctor.  I advise not to use steroid for fungal infections. Fungal infections initially respond to antifungal medication but won't get treated and infections start increases thereafter. I will be happy to answer all your future concern. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious disease specialist. Wish you the best health at Chat Doctor.
