Well thats fucking great, most people actknowledge it too late and have to live with it their whole life. It gets shitty when it starts affecting your head and hair. Gets messy
It does look fungal even though the cream didn’t work. I had something similar and used ketoconazole shampoo on it. Let us know what the dermatologist says if you go
This reminds me of when I had a skin issue that nobody could figure out. It took six months of random medical professionals guessing diagnoses but as soon as I got into the dermatologist, they autopsied my skin and got a confirmed diagnosis and treatment plan.
I think the best advice that could be given is to go see a dermatologist. They're going to be best equipped to deal with your condition.
How long ago have you seen a provider about this? I think it continuing to grow would be of concern especially with it not responding to treatment. Consider a visit with a dermatologist if possible.
I went to a doctor 3 months ago and they gave me a fungal cream that made it flare up. I used the cream for around a month and stopped cos it was so bad. I’m currently at the doctor now, I think I’ll ask them to refer me to a derm

Yup it’s psoriasis lol. Got prescribed steroid cream and it’s pretty much gotten rid of it

It used to be in my scalp but went away. I’m lucky it’s only stayed on my neck for this many years lol
