  5. My entire groin area itches uncontrollably and mostly when it is wet. I tried multiple creams. Each time it starts to heal, it itches badly and then I happen to scratch it to the effect that it pain later with bruising. Please help as I think it is growing slowly from groin itch to now itching near the butt cracked. I sometimes use hot air blower that soothes it. M really worried as this could also affect my sperm count due to hot air being blown in that part

To treat this, I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to help clear the infection from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. If the itching persists or worsens, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
