Hi,

It could be a fungal infection called TINEA CRURIS. Only topicals are not useful for extensive lesions.

Personal hygiene Tab Itraconazole 200 mg daily until lesions are clear Tab Teczine for combat the itching sensation.

Topical application..good one is AMOROLFINE..available as LIVAFIN CP from CADILA company, reduce your problem completely.

Dusting powders like clotrimazole DK GEL powder to maintain dryness on the affected area.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Puvvula Kishore Kumar, Dermatologist
