Hi.
As per your case history you are having intertrigo groin.
My treatment advice is –

1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine like levocetirizine for 7-10days .
4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole and terbinafine given only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
