Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have been experiencing red round patch rashes around my inner thighs, which are itching and paining. I am irritated. I applied a lot of anti-fungal creams, but I am not getting any results. Please help.

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

You may suffer from fungal infection, commonly affecting the inner thighs, groin, and buttocks. It can be treated by a course of anti-fungal treatment, including tablets and creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with counter steroid-containing creams like Fourderm (Chlorhexidine gluconate), Panderm (Clobetasol), Quadriderm (clotrimazole), Candid (Clotrimazole), etc., lead to repeated cases of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid-containing combination creams. Please call or contact me using the online consult option with photos for a detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread further on your body and other people living in the household. Consult your specialist doctor, take to them, and take medications with their consent.

I hope this information will help.

Thanks.

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