Hi there,
It is difficult for us to diagnose your red spots online, since we aren’t able to examine you in person. It sounds like your doctor suspected they were caused by an overgrowth of yeast, because the Nizoral cream he gave you is an antifungal.
Yeast is nornally present on our skin and is usually harmless, but ocassionally it can overgrow and cause a rash and itching.Yeast can take a while to go away, so it may just take another few weeks.
However, if you are using the cream correctly and you’re still not seeing any improvement, it’s a good idea to go back to your doctor to see if there is something else causing this rash, or if another antifungal might be more effective for you.
