Question

I'm dealing with a really persistent fungal infection in my groin for the last couple of months. At first, I tried using fourderm cream, but it just made my skin lose color in that area. So, I went to a general physician who told me to stop that and start taking GRISOREM 250 twice a day. The itching hasn't gotten worse, but it hasn't really improved either, and now the infection is spreading. It's even reached my right armpit, and wearing jeans is becoming really uncomfortable. The skin in the groin area feels super sensitive, and the itchiness is pretty unbearable. There's a female dermatologist close by, but I'm kind of worried it'll be awkward because the problem is in my groin area. Seeing a male doctor would feel even more awkward. Is it a good idea to visit her? Or could I get a prescription through private chat? I've got pictures of the infection if that helps one shows how it looked after using fourderm, and the other is from today.
