I've been dealing with a fungal infection and some ringworms on my inner thighs and buttocks. Im a sportsman, and after my workouts, all the sweating makes the itching really unbearable, especially in the inner thighs. What should I do to get relief from this? Are there any specific treatments or precautions I should take?

I've got this small, round red spot on my hip, and I suspect it might be some sort of fungal infection. I've been applying a cream called Bactafuz, which has fusidic acid in it. But I'm not sure if it's really the right treatment for this. Do you think I'm using the right cream for this kind of infection, or should I be trying something else? It's been worrying me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

I'm dealing with some discomfort from tinea cruris. Could you recommend a medication that would help with this? I'm not sure what to use and I want to make sure I choose the right treatment.

You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the inner thighs and buttocks area. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, hh zole, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams.
