Hi. For itching take levocetrizine monteleukast combination tablet once daily at night for few days. Use a good moisturizer like aquasoft fc/emodel ds/ dewsoft cream on whole face 30 minutes before using kojivit cream. Thanks.

Itching and black colour skin in groin area mostly seen due to fungal infections. And intertriginous areas of fingers are also due to fungal infection (from yours history).in that case fusidic acid (being antibacterial) it wil b of no use. For prevention keep both the area clean and dry. Keep separate towel for you. For treatment you have to use antifungal capsule and antifungal cream. Better visit nearest dermatolgist. Thanks.
