Hello

Thanks for posting your query.

I can understand your concern.

The darkening in the groin area is due to fungal infection called tinea.

The best treatment for it would be application of terbinafine cream twice a day for two to three weeks.

You might need a prescription from your doctor for the same.

The fungal infection will resolve in two to three weeks. However, the darkening will take time to resolve as the fungal infection leaves behind darkening of skin which slowly lightens over a couple of months.

The spots that you mentioned are not clearly visible on the photos. Would it be possible for you to send me a clearer image of the spots?

Thanks
