I've been dealing with this fungal infection for over a year now, and I regularly use CIPLA FOREDERM CREAM which makes it feel normal. But if I stop using the cream for just 2-3 days, the itching becomes so intense that I can't walk or wear pants comfortably. Can you advise me on how to cure this, and if there's a permanent treatment available? I'm really struggling with this and would appreciate some guidance.

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
