View allI'm struggling with this jock itch around my groin and butt area. I've tried using antifungal ointment, but it hasnt made a difference. Some spots have even turned dark, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Do you think I might need to take tablets for it?
It sounds like your jock itch may be resistant to topical treatment alone. In this case, oral anti-fungal medications may be necessary to effectively treat the infection. I recommend taking **Fluconazole** 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. Additionally, continue using the anti-fungal ointment as directed for better results. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry to prevent further irritation.

I'm currently on methotrexate, 10mg per week, for my condition, and now I've been prescribed Sotret for my acne. I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe to take both at the same time. Could there be any side effects or negative interactions I should be aware of?
And also use Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
