Hi.
As per your case history my advice is-
1. You maybe having a fungal infection as per your complains.
2. Using regularly cheap creams (mostly containing topical steroids) will only cause temporary relief. So avoid using it.
3. You can apply topical clotrimazole cream twice daily. Take tab.levocetrizine 5 mg twice daily for itching.
4. Further treatment options include oral fluconazole, itraconazole, topical terbinafine only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
