You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the thighs and Genital area. It can be treated completely. You have to take four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Please don't use panderm as it contains steroid which will cause a more harm than good. Detol can cause severe irritation and is not useful for fungus. Please contact me in private chat with photos for detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread further on your body and also to.other people living in the household.
