I have been prescribed different cream like Travocort, Elomet, Zarin by dermatologist for fungus infection. None of them work except Kenacomb(Centacomb) Cream. However, it is also steroid based. Is there any similar cream with that but without steroid. I know the component are: Nystatin, Gramicidin, Neomycin Base and Triamcinolone Acetonide.
Why is only Centacomb working? It seems Travocort is also antifungal
Also, is there any Laser treatment for skin fungus? I only know there is Laser treatment of toenail fugus. Why isn't there laser treatment for skin? Looking forward to your answer. Thx.

Kenacomb combines a potent corticosteroid triamcinolone with antifungal nystatin and wide spectrum antibacterials neomycin and gramicidin.
If Kenacomb is the only cream working it sounds as though you may also have a bacterial infection present. Your dermatologist should be able to confirm this for you.
