Stop using this creams. You may be suffering from fungal infection of the inner thighs groin and buttocks area which we call tinea cruris. this is commonly referred as jock itch. It is easily treatable by taking 4 to 6 weeks of treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Wrong treatment with over the counter creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, dermi 5, betnovate dermikem OC candid B, hh zole leads to severe side effects and also repeated recurrences. please do not use super body wash over the affected areas. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Please contact me using online consultation for detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread for the on your body and also to other people living in the household.

Hello dear. Thankyou for your wishes. Your fungal infection is recurring due to either:
1) Wrong creams like candiderma/siloderma. I'm assuming these are steroid containing creams.
2) Unhygienic practices.
3) Diabetes
4) Wearing tight clothes for prolonged periods
5) Continuously working in hot and humid environment.
Next Steps
Schedule an online consultation for accurate and complete treatment
