What are the diagnostic steps and treatment alternatives for severe, wet, and highly pruritic intertriginous skin lesions (in the axillary and inguinal/pubic regions) that have failed to respond to oral antifungals like itraconazole and various oral antihistamines?

Since oral itraconazole and antihistamines weren't effective, the next best step is seeing a dermatologist. They can perform a skin scraping, culture, or biopsy to check for bacterial infections, atypical yeasts, or inflammatory conditions like inverse psoriasis. For relief, they might suggest drying solutions (like aluminum acetate), topical mild steroid creams, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory topicals.
