Might be fungus: It does sound like a possible fungus infection. Maybe a different antifungal should be used. Keep the area as dry as you can and let air get to it and see if your doctor wants to try a different medication.

4 times? Even : If it was a fungus four times is not enough to expect a result. Also, fungus is not that common at that age. A mycology scrapping before the medication application could of been confirmatory. If it doesn't improve in 2 weeks time, maybe it is not fungus.
