For this first of all you have to take some antibiotic preferably cap doxycycline 100 mg twice daily after meals for at least 5 days along with tab levocetrizine or tab fexofenadine twice daily after meals for itching with tab rantac or cap omez twice daily empty stomach. ?You can also take some anti-fungal medicine like tab fole 150 mg once daily in night for at-least 5 days. In addition to all you have to use clobit-gm or valnerate-c cream for local application. Last but not the least, avoid scratching of local part, apply vaselline or coconut oil as it will be quite helpful in reducing the severity of itching.
