The product is Nystatin. I've been taking it for a few days now. The itching has been occurring for almost 2 years now. I will upload photos soon.

No changes to the area. I shaved a while back, but nothing recent. I just uploaded of bunch of pictures of the area.

Brief Answer:
Continue for at least a week!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I will suggest that you use this drug for at least a week. It is a good anti fungal drug and the most common cause of itching in this area is a fungal infection. However, if it fails to offer relief within a week, then it is worth exploring other possible causes which seem unlikely. I have reviewed all the attached images as well before making this recommendation.
I wish you well and await more updates in 5days; that would have completed 7days of treatment.
