Antifungal creams are topical medications designed to treat fungal infections on the skin. They work by inhibiting the growth of fungi, helping to alleviate symptoms such as itching, redness, and irritation. Common conditions treated with these creams include athlete's foot, ringworm, and yeast infections. These creams typically contain active ingredients like clotrimazole, miconazole, or terbinafine. They are applied directly to the affected area, usually once or twice a day, for a specified duration. It's important to follow the instructions provided by a healthcare professional or the product label for effective treatment.
