The condition most often occurs when people wear tight-fitting clothing that traps in moisture. Wash the affected skin two to three times a day. Keep the affected area dry. Avoid excess affected skin irritation by wearing 100% cotton underwear. Avoid fabric softeners, bleaches, or harsh laundry detergents. Wash your workout clothes, underwear, socks, and towels after each use. Keep your affected area, inner thighs, and buttocks clean and dry, especially after you exercise and shower. After showering or bathing, dry the irritated affected area by gently patting it with a towel. Be sure to dry your skin thoroughly. Mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in two cups of warm water. Wash the infected area with this solution and allow it to dry on its own. Another option is to apply a mixture of equal parts of white vinegar and coconut oil on the affected skin.

Dear lybrate-user, kem cho? Effective treatment available. Treatment depending on the type and severity. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas. Sweating also increases it. Your old clothes (mostly inner clothes), towels may also have fungus so change your fungus contact clothes after taking treatment. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Steroid based cream lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. I hope you find this information helpful you can send me photos of the affected area for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
