Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and viewed the image.

You seem to have fungal infection of groin. I suggest you to take a topical antifungal e.g clotrimazole 1% cream or ketoconazole 2% cream, twice daily for a 4- 6 weeks. In addition I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g Cetrizine 10mg once daily for symptomatic relief from itching.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
