Dermatologist 's  Response
Itchy rash started in the groin with a spreading tendency points more likely to a fungal infection....it is quite a common ailment nowadays...you have to takeoral and topical antifungals for the cure of the same...i suggest you to consult a dermatologist and do get skin scraping done for the confirmation of the condition and then to start antifungals like fluconazole 300 weekly or terbinafine 250 once a day along with topical sertaconazole or similiar antifungal for 2-4 weeks with regular follow up...thanks
