Skin infection on private body parts
Hi..! I am male 40 yrs. weight 70kg height 5.8". I am suffering from some infection on my buttocks and lower back belt area (sacrum) major on right side inner area. This is from several months but I use to apply Dectarin gel long back and recently using candid plain cream. This portion itches badly mostly in night. After applying these creams it helps for some days but again it turns back. Skin of private parts front n back is turning black and rough. I need your help in this.

Specific medicine required..Fungal infection or Ring worm.. when occurs in groin, called as jock itch.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema and infection, its a must to see and confirm the diagnosis for proper treatment..So, please send photos of the affected area for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
