It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection such as jock itch. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Lotrimin Ultra or Lamisil AT. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding scratching the rash can help with healing.

What's the cost of getting laser treatment for tanning on my face? I'd really like to know about any changes I might see afterward and if there are any side effects. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it generally safe? I'm really curious to hear your thoughts on this.

The cost of laser treatment for your face regarding tanning can range from Rs 1,000 to Rs 30,000 per session in India. The treatment can help reduce tanning, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone by targeting melanin and promoting collagen production. As for side effects, you may experience minor and temporary issues like redness, pain, or infections, but these can be minimized by choosing a reputable clinic and experienced dermatologist.
