Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
Body folds can trap sweat, heat and moisture, therefore making the area favourable for fungus proliferation. This is specially common in summers when there is lot of sweating
If I was the treating doctor I would have asked you to use a topical OTC antifungal cream e.g
Clotrimazole cream, twice daily for 4 weeks. One such cream that you can use is Candid-B cream, twice daily for 4 weeks. for the thigh and groin area.
I would also suggest an
oral antifungal e.g
fluconazole 150mg once weekly for 4-6 weeks for a more complete cure.
An OTC antihistamine e.g
cetrizine 10mg once daily would help you in symptomatic itch relief.
An Antifungal dusting powder e.g clotrimazole dusting powder can also be used throughout the summers, it would not only keep the folds dry but also inhibits the growth of fungus/yeast thus preventing recurrence.
General measures like loose fitting clothes, bathing twice during summers,
weight loss and checking for blood sugar levels etc go a long way in providing relief from recurrent fungal infection
