1. Apply antifungal cream containing clotrimazole, steroid and antibiotic such as Lobate GM cream thrice daily for 15 days
2. You can keep taking oritraz forte as suggested by your doctor
3. Keep your groin area clean and dry
4. You can use ketoconazole dusting powder also
5. Do not scratch
6. Take high protein diet such as eggs and cheese to boost immunity
7. Investigation – blood sugar (fasting & postprandial)
Thanks
