You may be suffering from a fungal infection like tinea cruris or candidiasis which can present on the inner thighs and pubic area. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams.Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, hh zole, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Get an online consult or meet a dermatologist directly for a proper evaluation of the condition. Do not delay treatment as it may spread further on your body and also to other people living in the household. Hope this was helpful.
