Have Jock Itch Problem Near Inner Thigh. Not Cured By Betamil GM Cream. Suggest The Treatment For Cure.
Thank you for posting the query,
Jock itch is nothing but a fungal infection ,which is very commonly seen over the inner thighs or groins. But unfortunately you have been using a wrong cream over the area.Betamil GM is a steroid which being an anti-inflammatory can temporarily suppress the infection but can never cure it.In-fact it would aggravate your problem.
So I would advise you to use any good anti fungal tablet like tab fluconazole or terbinafin .Fluconazole is taken as a weekly dose while Terbinafin is taken as a daily dose.Either one can be taken for about a month.
You should even apply a anti fungal cream over the lesion like ketoconazole cream or a clotrimazole cream for a faster action.But kindly avoid betamil GM.
You can get these medicines prescribed by a dermatologist since they wont be available as a over the counter medicines.
Hope I've answered your query.
Should you have additional concern regarding the same ,I would be happy to address it.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
