hi, i do care for your concern.
You have not mentioned your age.
howevwer i would advise
to check your blood glucose level checked as this is a major contributor for recurrent infection. A long course anti-fungal medication would help.
Also use anti-fungal soap, and keep your under garments neat and tidy, avoid excessive sweat formation by using dusting powder, as this all would definitely add to the help.
If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer.
