I'm having a skin allergy for the past couple of days with these small red spots and it's quite itchy. I took an Avil tablet the day before yesterday, but it's still bothering me. Should I be worried about this, or try something else?

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?
