Yes, Candid B cream can help treat jock itch as it contains antifungal and anti-inflammatory agents. Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin twice daily. Keep the area clean and dry, but its not mandatory to leave it exposed after applying the creamjust avoid tight clothing to allow airflow and prevent moisture buildup. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
