I have a fungal issue on my private area. Specially on sitting area. It may be because of doing lots of workout like gym and running. I tried many medicines like candle powder and many tubes. But when seem to that it's curing then suddenly it increases. It is like ringworm which is increasing slowly slowly like red scar. Please suggest me what you can. Thank you.

Hi. Sometime fungal infection in groin area and back (tinea cruris) may not resolve with creams alone. You may require oral tablets which a dermatologist will decide after seeing the extent of involvement and your body weight. So consult near by dermatologist. Avoid wearing a wet clothes for long time and change clothes more frequently. Avoid sharing towels and soaps. Take care.
