HOW DO I GET RID OF MY JOCK ITCH AND ATHLETE’S FOOT?
How can I get rid of it? I’ve had it for years! I’ve tried it all: Creams, Powders, Lamisil from the doctor, tea tree oil, everything. My nails are yellow and hard, and my groin area is brown and always itches. I keep everything dry but it doesn’t help. What can I do? I think the brown is a yeast infection or scarring from scratching. But the brown area always feels wet. Any ideas? Thank you!
You can’t, but if you increase your flexibility you can itch both at the same time.
Seriously, there is hope. Keeping your skin dry all the time is making things worse. Skin needs moisture to heal. Clean the area with alcohol and if it burns you’ve got open wounds from the scratching. Those wounds are seeping and that’s why it feels wet. Stop scratching and let your skin heal. Then use one of those over the counter treatments. As for your nails, I’m afraid the treatment can be a bit more severe. A lady I went to church with had a very bad fungal problem on her feet and nails; her doctor removed all of her toenails and then prescribed a cream to rid her feet and nail beds of the infection. It was pretty painful but it worked. Her nails grew back eventually.
