Hi,
brief answer: Tinea cruris

detailed answer:
as per your history, you and your husband have fungal infection called inea cruris.
my treatment advise would be:
1. maintain hygiene.
2. take bath daily.
3. wear loose cotton clothes.
4. it may take atleast 2-3 months to heal completely, so treatment has to be continued for 2-3 months.
5. you may take a course of oral antifungals for 3 months of cap itraconazole 100 mg twice a day for 7 days every month after consulting a dermatologist.
6. also, you may take tab levocetrizine 10 mg twice a day for itching.
7. also, you may apply topical antifungals like miconazole cream twice a day.
wishing you good health.
thank you
