A topical composition for treating fungal skin infections with associated inflammation may include making or administering to the affected skin area an antifungal and steroid, such as a corticosteroid. Certain compositions may include antifungals such as itraconazole or econazole and corticosteroids such as fluticasone, fluocinonide, or clobetasol. The antifungal and steroid may be within a cream. In one example, a commercially available econazole nitrate cream may be used in conjunction with a commercially available fluocinonide cream or commercially available clobetasol cream to treat the affected skin area.
