Intertrigo: Intertrigo happens under the skin folds & is due to maceration in those areas that provides a good environment for candida yeast to live and irritates the skin. Clotrimazole has good activity against yeast and Betamethasone relieves the inflammation. Protecting the skin with a zinc oxide product such as a diaper rash ointment after putting those on will further protect skin from maceration.
