Brief Answer:
Change of medication needed for this issue!!!

Detailed Answer:
Warm Welcomes. I appreciate your trust in HCM and assure you are on best portal on the globe for expert online medical services.
I have thoroughly reviewed health query you raised, and well realize all of those concerns. Being your physician, I will take care all of them today and will extend my expertise to solve the problems.

Diagnostic Facts:-
It is actually fungal infection on the skin in the area. Disease is named as "Jock Itch" and is manageable.

Keep the area shaved in a timely fashion and clean after getting free from restroom. Better is to clean with water and wipe out properly to dry the skin.

Apply HYDROCORTISONE + CLOTRIMAZOLE OINTMENT on the skin. Take FEXOFENADINE orally every night to get relief from itching and you will not get disturbed while sleeping. Take plenty of clean drinking water and a balanced healthy diet and use cotton only underwear and loose clothes. Avoid hot and humid areas and at night wear very loose cotton trousers.

Hope I addressed all the concerns you have. Let me know if you have further questions. I will be more than happy to clear any doubts. Please give your 'rating' (if agreed, Five Stars) to help me assist patients in a better way; and, please don't forget to click on 'Close The Discussion'.

Brief Answer:
Propygenta NF is not made for fungal infections!!!

Detailed Answer:

I appreciate your continued trust in HCM and happy to have a follow up from your side. I am more than glad to assist you more to clear the doubts you have about the medications to treat your conditions.

Actually Propygenta NF is a cream meant for dealing with the bacterial infections e.g if you have got a XXXXXXX cut or breach in the skin, burns etc then we can apply that cream to get rid of or prevent in the first place the infection that are caused by the bacterial pathogens.

But right now you have a fungal infection and you need an antifungal ointment to get rid of the infection. I think it is clear now why Propygenta NF isn't working for you.

Hope I addressed all the concerns you have. Let me know if you have further questions. I will be more than happy to clear any doubts. Please give your 'rating' to help me assist patients in a better way; and, please don't forget to click on 'Close The Discussion'.
