Hi,

Your symptoms could be due to fungal infection, contact dermatitis. I would suggest to consult a dermatologist and undergo detailed examination KOH mount preparation to confirm cause. Take following prescribed medicines:

For fungal infection, You require oral terbinafine for 2 to 3 week. I would recommend you to change it to some other topical antifungal like sertaconazole cream or luliconazole cream. Tablet levoctrizine for itching. Keep are clean and dry, wear pure cotton loose inner and stay in cool environment. Drink plenty of water and eat healthy diet. For dermatitis:Mild steroid ointment will help you. Wash affected part with warm water. Application of cetaphil moisturizer cream.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
