[|Human|] Hello Doctor, I had severe tinea cruris (lesions, pus, odor, skin flakes) when i was in college. After 8 years now the dark patch in groin still present. It does not itch anymore as i used clotrimszole powder for years. However as i amgetting married i want to completely remove dark patch in groin. I am afraid my wife will get the infection and it looks kind of ugly too. As its very old i am really in need of some good medicine on this not the over the counter ones.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing to us. You are not having active Tina infection. This dark pigmented area in groin that has occurred due to Tina is known as post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It would not spread to your wife or affect your martial life but can be cosmetically unpleasant. The same can be reduced with application of HY Chat Doctor.  It might take a month or two to notice response in the area. Use very small amount of cream and do not rub the same as may cause irritation. Hope that would help you. Take care
