I'm dealing with some serious itching and irritation around my pubic area, and I'm really worried. There are these white or grey spots with light pink in between, and the skin looks different from the surrounding area. It seems like this is spreading to my groin and even affecting my scrotum, which also feels infected. It's really covering a good part of the area between my thighs, and the itching is just unbearable. What could this be, and how should I handle it?

I'm dealing with this spider pee rash that came back on my upper thigh. The first time I got it, my doctor friend told me to use Clobeng a few times a day, and luckily there wasn't any itching then, so I just went with that treatment. But now it's showing up again and causing irritation. I've started using Clobeng once more, but I'm concerned it might not go away entirely this time. How can I get rid of it for good?

Along with topical lotion you have to use oral Antifungal medications,for which visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment, personal hygiene is more important for such conditions.
