My husband is 35 and he's developed ringworm near his pubic area. We're really looking for some advice on how to deal with the itching and burning. Is there a specific cream or treatment you'd recommend that could help him? We're quite concerned and could use some guidance.

I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry before applying the cream. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
