Fungal infection and itching in groin ar
I have suffering from fungal infection and itching sensation on my groin and inner thighs for the two years. I have taken antifungal medicine after consulting specialist. I have undergone treatment for about three months. Problem seems to be solved at that time. But after stopping medicine it started again. I am working in chemical industry. I do walking in a evening time 5 times a week. Is there any further tests needed? For solving the issue permanantly.

Don't worry...100% cure possible...Fungal infection or Ring worm.. when occurs in groin, called as jock itch.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema and infection, its a must to see and confirm the diagnosis for proper treatment..So, please send photos of the affected area by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
