I've had this skin allergy on my stomach and back for almost three weeks now. It's a red circle with small dots outside and really itchy, kind of like those ring guard ones. I've tried calamine lotion and taken some Avil, but it's still bothering me. Any idea what's going on or what else I should do?

It's been a bit of a concern for me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Should I be worried?

I'm struggling with a pretty stubborn case of jock itch. It's been lingering for about a month, and even though it's a bit better now, the itching is still quite intense. Can you suggest a good antifungal cream to help clear this up?
-For jock itch, you can use Clotrimazole cream (e.g., Candid or Lotrimin) or Ketoconazole cream (e.g., Nizoral). Apply a thin layer twice daily after washing and drying the area thoroughly. Continue using it for at least 2 weeks after the itching subsides
