Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to fungal infection.

For that you can apply clotrimazole ointment locally.

You may require tablet terbinafine after consultation. Usually it takes 4-6 weeks to recover.

Along with that maintain proper hygiene. Avoid hot and humid environment. Avoid sweating. Try to bath daily two times.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
