Brief Answer:
Please send a photo of inner thighs to me

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concern.

Can you send a photo? I need to ensure it is a fungal infection and not a bacterial infection of the thigh skin.

If fungal infection is confirmed, terbinafin ointment recommended locally. If still no improvement, you might need oral treatment too.

Thank you.
Dr.Albana
