Hi.
As per your case history of jock itch, my treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Wear loose clothes and keep your belongings separate as it is a contagious disease.
3. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it.
4. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for itching.
5. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
