Is there an infection around the area? It's very itchy and annoying. Can anyone recommend any type of cream I can put on the inner thigh area so that the itching goes away?

try tinactin.

Works for jock itch, athletes foot and ring worm.

I found out cause i had a cat with ringworm and that is what the vet told me to get. when i read the package it said it is for all three.

Only had it twice in my long life. Tinactin liquid spray works best for me.

The same fungus can move to your head as a dandruff condition or to your feet as athletes foot if you transfer it by scratching. This fungus likes damp and dark conditions
so stay dry if you can. If you sweat heavily, change shorts mid-day. Use to spray
as directed, Normally its used for several days after the condition clears. If there are
cracks in the tissue be sure and spread them so the medication gets in there.

Thank you very much for the advice. It's been bothering me for a while.
