I'm really worried about this fungal infection on the skin around my scrotum. It's been there for a while now, and nothing seems to be helping it go away. I've got some pictures if that helps to explain things better. What do you think could be causing this, and what should I do next? Should I come in for a check-up right away?

I'm struggling with these really itchy rashes on my trunk and hands. I initially tried taking fexodine 180 mg twice a day but didn't see any improvement. Then, I switched to prednisolone 20 combined with cetirizine, but it's been five days and there's still no relief. Is there anything else I should try or any advice you could give? I'm getting pretty worried about this situation.
