Hello

Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com

I can understand your concern.

You seem to be having fungal infection called tinea. It's caused by a fungus called dermatophytosis. It needs to be treated with terbinafine cream called lamisil.

For the itching you can take an anti histamine called claritin.

That should help you with your concern.

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Take care

Regards.
