Description

Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 74-year-old male, and for the past two years, I have been unable to rid myself of a stubborn case of jock itch. I have tried all of the over-the-counter ointments, powders, and antifungal and antibacterial soaps without success. My dermatologist prescribed econazole nitrate cream 1%, which keeps it from getting worse but does not rid me of the problem. Do you have any other recommendations on how to treat this? -- I.F.
