Question: Can Tinea Cruris form into a type of wart or growth? I know most think Cauliflower-esque when fungi is stated (I think it's because the shape of a mushroom comes to mind), but what I wanted to know is if the fungi that causes tinea cruris (which I know I had really bad at one point for the first time ever. I never get any type of disorders, period), can it cause a sort of wart inbetween my buttocks? I have these bumps and I'm making an appointment with my doctor today. I was wondering if anyone has had anything similar. I thought maybe I had a pimple of some kind for months, and now that I've checked there are a lot of them (No, I haven't had anal intercourse, nor have I been involved in any risky behavior either.). Any information on a type of progression would be great if possible. Thank you. Note: It itches, off and on, and bleeds sometimes when cleaning myself after going to the bathroom. Other than that, there isn't any "pain."

Answer: Sounds like you are prone to fungal infections and need to balance your biochemistry. See if doctor will prescribe Nizoral pills and shampoo/soap which consists of ketonazole.

Question: Can I go to the beach with a Jock itch? (tinea cruris)? Would it be good or bad to go to the beach with a jock itch?

Answer: You can go to the beach with jock itch. It will only get bad if you start scratching madly in public. Why don't you get some powder and cure it? Most powders that work on athletes foot will work on jock itch, both are caused by the same type of fungus.

Question: how can i cure effectively my tinea cruris (jock itch) ?

Answer: You can buy an antifungal cream from pharmacies, or get one on prescription. There are various types and brands. For example; terbinafine, clotrimazole, econazole, ketoconazole, miconazole, and sulconazole. These modern creams are good at clearing fungal skin infections. * Apply the cream to the surrounding 4-6 cm of normal skin in addition to the rash. * Apply for as long as advised. This varies between the different creams, so read the instructions carefully. Although the rash may seem to go quite quickly, you still need to apply the cream for 1-2 weeks after the rash has gone. This is to completely clear the fungi from the skin which will prevent the rash from returning. An anti-fungal medicine taken by mouth is sometimes prescribed if the rash does not clear with a cream, or if the rash is in many places on the skin in addition to the groin.
