Men experiencing tinea cruris may want to try a topical antifungal cream. The infection can be treated fairly quickly with over-the-counter antifungal creams, though some individuals may need prescription-strength creams. The antifungal properties will fight the cause of the condition, and the cream usually provides some instant itch relief, as well, though it can take a week or so for symptoms to subside completely.
