I've been dealing with these red rings that itch for about six months now. Some medications help, but only for a short time, and then the rings come back. What might be causing this, and is there a better way to treat or manage it? I'm a bit worried since it's been going on for quite a while.

I'm really worried about this redness and rash under my private parts. It all started around two months ago, and initially, it was just itching. But, within two weeks, it turned red and spread quickly. I've been trying various creams and dusting powders, but nothing seems to help, and the problem's still here. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
