See a dermatologist: If his problem has been going on for 3 months and you have tried 2 reasonable over-the-counter medications then you should now have a dermatologist evaluate the problem.

Derm consult: They may want to take a sample of the rash and figure out exactly what it is to give you the appropriate medication.

Dermatitis: Possible dematitiis is cause. Steroid topicals may be helpful if fungus culture has been done and negative. Consult dermatologist/ podiatrist.
