Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi

You seem to have developed fungal infection in the groin and the flexures .

Wear loose cotton clothes to decrease sweating.

Application of topical anti fungals like clotrimazole will help .

Avoid applying any other cream or oil over the area .

Sometimes treatment with oral anti fungals is required as well.
