Hi,

Jock itch is a fungal infection of the groin area which causes an itchy, red, often ring shaped rash. Treatment includes keeping the groin area clean and dry as well as applying topical anti-fungal medication.Avoid steroid creams like lobate gm for long term use. Use only anti-fungal containing cream. Avoid tight inner wear and use breathable fabrics. Improve your body immunity since fungal infections are common with persons with low immunity.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
