Itching with mild skin peeling in diabetics is frequently caused by dry skin or a fungal infection. Keep the region clean and dry, moisturize on a regular basis, and use an antifungal cream such as clotrimazole or terbinafine if it appears red or itching. If the problem is simply dryness, apply a light moisturizer such as Cetaphil or Venusia. Because diabetes raises the risk of infection, consult a doctor if symptoms do not resolve in a few days or if redness spreads.

Candid-B Cream contains Beclometasone (0.025%), a mild corticosteroid, and Clotrimazole (1%), an antifungal medicine. It may be used on the external genital area only if prescribed by a doctor to treat fungal infections with inflammation, redness, or itching. However, it should be applied externally in a thin layer and not inside the vagina, urethra, or rectum. Prolonged or unsupervised use can cause skin thinning, irritation, or steroid-related side effects, so it should be used strictly under medical supervision and only for the prescribed duration.

This is most likely a fungal infection (jock?itch). Wear loose cotton clothing, keep the region clean and dry, and apply an antifungal cream such clotrimazole, miconazole, or terbinafine twice a day for 2-3 weeks. Avoid scratching your underwear and change it every day. If the irritation persists or worsens after 1-2 weeks, consult a dermatologist for harsher treatment.

If Candid B has not worked after a month, it may not be the proper treatment. Stop using steroid creams, keep the region clean and dry, and switch to a basic antifungal cream like clotrimazole or terbinafine. If the rash is spreading, particularly uncomfortable, or does not improve within a week, consult a dermatologist long lasting rashes may require a thorough examination or oral medicine.

You can use an antifungal lotion, such as clotrimazole (Candid-B cream) or ketoconazole, twice daily for 1-2 weeks. Keep the region clean and dry, and dress in loose cotton clothing. If itching continues, worsens, or spreads, consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

Since your red, itchy spots appeared after travel and did not improve with Candid-B Cream (Clotrimazole and Beclometasone), they are likely caused by an allergic reaction or heat rash rather than a fungal infection. Stop using this antifungal cream, keep your skin clean and cool, and consult a doctor, who may recommend an oral antihistamine or a mild topical anti-itch lotion.
