But no use it stops till I use it after the problem starts again. Out of frustration. I applied dettol liquid on my private part and anal area it was burning but I keep it around 30-40 min and then washed it. All my skin is burned and the testis skin is peeling off. I am in terrible pain. The new skin below the surface is reddish. I feel a lot of pain when the affected area of testis skin comes in contact on brushes against my underwear please help me from this problem ring worm and skin burn.

Sir, it was not right for you to apply dettol over those areas. For ring worm infection you need to apply anti fungal ointments atleast one month more post remission. You may need oral and topical antibiotics along side antifungal treatment for present condition. But as per the rule I cannot prescribe you one here. Kindly contact me with detailed images of the local areas only (where skin has peeled off) so that I can help you. Thanks.
