Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have high itching between thighs and genital organ.

Answered by Dr. Sushil Kakkar

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern. You seem to have a fungal infection, that is tinea cruris. I suggest oral Fluconazole 150 mg tablet, once a week for four weeks. Topically, you may use Luliconazole 1 % cream, twice daily. I also suggest you take a tablet of Cetirizine for symptomatic relief from itching.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
