I'm dealing with a skin infection in my groin area and it's been going on for 20 to 25 days now. The skin on my inner thigh, right below the scrotum, has a foul smell and there's a blackish discoloration around it. Plus, I notice this thin, white, milky layer over the infected spot. Whenever I wear tight clothes, I get a burning feeling on a small part of the skin when I walk. I've been using clotrimazole, but it's not really helping. Could you give me some advice on what else I can do?

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this ringworm issue near my vaginal area. It's getting worse every day with itching, inflammation, a red patch, and dark skin. I've tried using lechensa cream, but it's not helping at all. Can you suggest some cream or treatment that will actually work? I've never had skin problems like this before, and it's really frustrating and upsetting. What should I do?
