I'm dealing with a constant itching and burning sensation between my legs, especially around my testis and anus. It's been going on for a couple of months now. I've tried a few things like Quard cream, surfazsn, and even consulted a doctor who suggested Ritch cream and levoctrizen, but nothing has helped. I also visited AIIMS Jodhpur where they recommended candid b, Fluconazole tablets, and powder, yet I still haven't found any relief. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I recommend trying a combination of Clotrimazole cream (such as Candid-B) for local application twice a day, Fluconazole tablet 150mg once a day for 7 days, and Fluconazole powder for dusting in the affected areas. This combination can help treat fungal infections effectively. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage and duration for optimal results
