Suggest Treatment For Infection Around Inner Thigh Along With Dry Itchy Skin

Hi i am having this infection around inner thigh in semi circular shape. The skin around that is dried up and itchy. I thought it is jock itch and been using clotrimazole cream for like 3 weeks. The oitnment was effective before and infection was cleared. But it has returned now and clotrimazole doesn t seem to be effective. Should i change the cream to lamisil or any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be fungal infection and this might be resistance to the clotrimazole and now you need to try another agent and best option would be Miconazole cream try this everything would be fine soon, take care.
