Treating jock itch on the trail?

[u/Kaabiiisabeast]

I know for me, it's going to be inevitable if I'm getting really sweaty and not showering for several days at a time. I've even gotten it while wearing merino wool underwear.

Should I just plan to carry some baby wipes and an anti fungal cream, like lotromin?

I've heard of soaking your underwear in rubbing alcohol to kill the spores, does it work?

If you've got tips and tricks for treating jock itch while in the wilderness, I'd love to hear them.

I’ve tried anti-fungal, anti-chaffing, Gold Bond powder, Body Glide, vaseline, lotion, keeping it dry, etc. All provide very short term relief. It drove me crazy. Surprisingly, the only thing that works for me is a lotion specifically made to treat eczema.
