I am suffering with fungal infection (tinea crisis as doctors identified) since 4 years and have taken fluconazole, itraconazole medicines for a long duration with luliconazole and related creams. But nothing is helping. Skin color is changed but fungal is quite invisible. Sweat causes too much inches and redness in the area. Wasted too much money on Sporanox kind of capsules but nothing helped yet. No signs of infection from naked eye but inches are there. Mainly on joints and under the scrotum. Anyone who can help me with guarantee. I have spent lot of money on it and left with empty pockets. Please Help!

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.
