Jock itch is a fungus that is most common in men. They deal with it on a daily basis and it most often goes untreated for long periods of time. In most cases it is because a person has the fungus on their feet known as Athlete’s foot and then when putting on their underwear their feet come in contact with their underwear and then the fungus gets introduced to the groin area. Because the groin is a hot spot on the body, it becomes a feeding ground for the ringworm fungus. Yes, jock itch is simply ringworm of the groin area.

It is common in our customer service department to ask customers about having athlete’s foot before getting jock itch because they are most often related. The products that are recommended for the treatment of jock itch are the All Stop Medicated Skin Cream, Healing Gel, Medicated Body Wash and Disinfectant Spray. The reason for the four step approach is because you would be killing the fungus on your body as well as in your environment.

The Medicated Skin Cream draws the fungus spores to the surface and dries them up, the Healing Gel kills fungus and bacteria on the skin, the Body wash work to wash away the fungus and bacteria on the skin, and the Disinfectant spray kills the fungus in the environment. You can use this spray in the shower, the tub or even on the floor. Fungus is something that is not just going to go away, if there is moisture there, it will thrive. Our products are jock itch treatments are non toxic and will not harm you in any way. This is a every day process that can take any where from forty-eight hours or up to about one week to clear up depending on the severity of the jock itch case. It is not a disease but it is highly contagious. You want to be careful before putting on your underwear by putting socks on your feet first before putting your underwear on. Keeping the area as dry as possible by using powder is also a helpful tip that we have learned. Learn more about our non-toxic Jock Itch Treatment.
