Not usually: The usual cause is friction or skin yeast, not fungus. The creams used are commonly labeled "antifungal" because they treat both fungus and yeast. It would seem that your doctor gave you the right medication.

Intense itching under breasts and groin. Scratching can rub a lot of the skin off leaving a red and raw area that burns but still itchy. No pus. I do sweat a lot. Should I try anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, or hydrocortisone cream?
