Hello,
Fungal infection on inner thigh needs to be treated with anti-fungals. The area needs to be kept dry and anti-fungal ointments need to be applied to control fungal infection. I suggest you to consult a dermatologist for clinical assessment and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
