hi. i have read your question and understand your concern.

red itchy lesions on your groin areas are suggestive of fungal infection (ringworm). you need a course of antifungals along with antihistamines. also try to keep the area dry. avoid sweating and tight fitting underwears.

if i were your treating dermatologist i would start you on
tab terbinafine 250 mg once a day
terbinafine cream twice daily
tab cetrizine once a day

i suggest you see your dermatologist and get a prescription for the same.

hope this helps. for any further questions please get back to us. thanks.
