Hi
Welcome to HCM.
Application of quadriderm in groin is not encouraged at all. These combinations are now banned and no doubt they should be avoided. You are probably having fungal infection, that's very common. But after applying quadriderm fungus become resistant & common drug doesn't work. You should consult your dermatologist. He will prescribe appropriate medicines to cure.
Good luck
