My skin near my testicles is changing color, and it's getting really soft. Now, it's starting to crack, and there's even some bleeding. It's quite painful. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

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

I'm struggling with a Tinea Cruris infection around my thighs and back. I used lulifin ointment with tenovate before, and it seemed to help at first, but after a month, the infection came back in the same spot. Now I'm using ZoleF ointment. Can you suggest any creams or medicines that could provide a permanent solution for this issue?

For Tinea Cruris infection, it is important to use antifungal medications consistently to prevent recurrence. In addition to Zole-F ointment, you can consider using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice daily for 2-4 weeks. It is important to continue the treatment for the full duration even if the symptoms improve to prevent the infection from coming back. Additionally, keeping the affected areas clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items can help prevent reinfection.
