I am a 19 year old female and I have developed some rashes type of redness in my groin area. It does not cause any pain but is very itchy most of the times. Itching increases during night time. I applied powder itraconazole and tablet zyncet to subside the itching. But the redness or rash is not curing. I have it from past 4 months. I also suffer from hypothyroidism so please suggest some medicine to cure this.
