Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
I would keep a possibility of Fungal infection/Tinea
If I was your treating doctor I would have asked you to use a topical antifungal cream e.g clotrimazole cream twice daily for 4 weeks.
An Oral Antifungal e.g Fluconazole 150mg once weekly for 4 weeks is also advisable.
An OTC antihistamine once daily e.g cetrizine would help you symptomaticallt with the itching.
