Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Your problem is most likely Tenia corporis fungal infection.For such cases i treat with ketaconazole powder or terbinafine ointment for local application.I also advise Tab fluconazole weekly once for 1 month to stop recurrance.Wash the area with warm water and keep dry.Change sweaty cloths at time.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
