Dermatologist 's  Response
hi,
as per your history, you have intertrigo cause by repeated friction of skin.
my treatment advise would be:
1. maintain hygiene.
2. wear loose cotton clothes.
3. you may apply miconazole cream twice a day over groin and macrerated area.
4. you may take tab levocetrizine twice a day for itching.
5. also, you may nned oral antifungals like tab fluconazole, but that has to be taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
wishing you good health.
thank you
