Tinea Cruris
I think have developed a fungal infection near by inner thighs and the adjacent areas of that part of the body. It is been there of now quite sometime. I am applying a cream called Cloben-g. It stops the itching for a day and again it starts. I apply the cream daily. But to no effect its helping. It helps for certain amount of time but then again the itching stars so I have to re apply. The area effected is also getting a look very bad. So please can you suggest me the best treatment forward. Or else please suggest a cream for it. Thanks Rishi Gadodia

Fungal infection is becoming an increasing problem due to rampant usage of antifungals, mostly self medication by the patients. To add to the problem, many combination tubes are easily available in market and there is no regulation on the sale. They make the fungal infection a permanent problem though it may provide temporary relief. Please see a dermatologist as some extra medications are co-prescribed many a times to treat this complicated fungal infection. If needed a simple skin test can also be done to confirm the diagnosis. Till then use only over-the-counter anti-allergic medications to control itching. Personal hygiene should be good. Wear loose fitting clothes.
Next Steps
Stop Cloben G, it is the worse thing that you can do to your skin
