Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am an 18-year-old male, suffering from a jock itch for 10 months. I had tried Quadridum RF, Clotrimazol, and Terbinafine for some time prescribed by a doctor. I also tried homeopathy as it usually works for me. I am medium-built and otherwise healthy. Now the skin condition in my groin is very bad and I have itchy elevated rashes. Please advise me on some medicine. I have attached a photo for your review and judgment.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
1. Please maintain good hygiene.
2. Avoid sweating and friction as much as you can.
3. Wear loose clothing.
4. If other family members are also involved treat them also.
5. Avoid contact with pets.
6. Take Terbinafine 250 mg once daily for 6 weeks. Do not change it again as resistance may appear.
7. Apply Clotrimazole cream two times a day for 14 days.
You can consult a specialist doctor, talk with them, and take medications with their consent.
Thank you.
