I'm struggling with persistent irritation and itchiness in my groin area, especially after long drives in hot and humid conditions. Initially, keeping the area dry and using Candid Clotrimazole powder would help, but now it seems to have become a recurring issue. The skin's darker with some scaling, and the itchiness and burning sensation return if I skip a bath or don't use the powder every 12 hours. I'm wearing loose clothing and trying to keep the area as dry as possible, but I'm not seeing any permanent relief. What can I do to completely get rid of this problem?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection and have been using tetmosol soap, but nothing else seems to work. Could you suggest any other options or steps I might take to improve the situation?
To manage fungal infections, continue using Tetmosol soap, which contains clotrimazole, an antifungal agent; however, to enhance treatment and prevent recurrence, also consider: keeping the affected area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting cotton clothing, applying an antifungal cream or powder, and consulting a dermatologist for further guidance and evaluation

I'm really worried because I've noticed more and more dark spots and blackness appearing on my face, especially around my eyes and under them. It seems like my face is getting darker every day. What could be causing this, and is there anything I can do to help it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing hyperpigmentation. You can try using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. Additionally, using a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily can help prevent further darkening of the skin. Make sure to apply the cream on the affected areas twice a day, and remember to follow up with your skincare routine.
