Tinea cruris is an infection of the groin caused by a fungus which is dermatophyte. It is a superficial skin infection. Treatment with an antifungal cream(Azoles) usually works well.
1.Wash your groin daily.
2.Change underwear daily.
3Check for athlete's foot
4.Do not share towels
Treatment is usually advised for 2 weeks.
Take care!
