Hi, I had tinea cruris for long, somehow got it treated with itraconazole 200 mg and sertaconazole cream for almost 1 month. Now, after long, there is a big patch on hips which has same texture like fungal but a lot in control. It's a long persistent one. Also, I feel the same has impacted the penis glans (white plaque), a lot of constant itching in one right ear canal, and not too much but slight flush of the tongue. Considering the hepatotoxicity, pl suggest would only topical is suggested or to be combined with medicines as well. Pls suggest the course. Thanks.

Dear Lybrate user, tinea cruris is a dermatophytosis that is commonly caused by trichophyton rubrum or t. Mentagrophytes. The primary risk factors are associated with a moist environment (ie, warm weather, wet and restrictive clothing, obesity causing constant apposition of skinfolds). Men are affected more than women because of the apposition of the scrotum and thigh. Our doctors mainly handle this kind of issue by applying the right homeopathic medications alongside other necessary therapeutic measures. But they usually diagnose the skin type and nature of the persons as it enables them to eradicate the exact cause of the problem on a long-term basis. You can visit one of our clinics in delhi. At the same time, we are inviting you to avail our video consultation service. This will help you to interact with one of our senior doctors regarding this kind of issue very comfortably. This service will provide you with the same level of satisfaction as that of visiting a clinic directly.
