Hi

The sites of body that you have mentioned are very commonly infected with superficial fungal infections .
Such infections can occur in areas with sweating,mace ration and friction .
Keep the affected area clean and dry .
Application of topical antifungal agents is required in most such cases .
Oral antifungal agents also have to be given along at times .
