Hello doctor,
I am facing skin problems for the past 12 to 13 years. Having an infection of tinea cruris and other tinea infection. It frequently occurs. On medication, it stopped but again it got reversed. Skin gets very dark on buttocks. What will be the permanent solution?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Tinea is caused by the fungus. There is no permanent solution as sweat or high humid will help the growth of fungus. So avoid sweat as much as you can. Use cotton clothes. Take bath twice daily. Keep your body dry, especially skin folds. Do not use wrong creams or tablets.
