Hello, I'm 26 Yrs old, I've a Jock Itch in my groin area since 4 months which is spreading quickly. I've applied many creams and cleaned the groin area with Listerine twice a day. But the itch is so intense in overnight that sub-consciously I keep scratching the affected area. Now I'm realy worried and I need a permanent cure. Please give me a valuable advice and recommend a good doctor. Thank you in advance
