Itchy and dry skin in inner thighs
I feel lots of itching and burning in my inner thighs from last few days. Even on my testicles I have dry skin which is coming out. I have stopped using soaps taking bath regularly and applying coconut oil which gives temporary relief. Earlier I was using zalim lotion and sometimes lobate GM. Please help

You may be suffering from fungal infection of the inner thighs groin and buttocks area which we call tinea cruris. this is commonly referred as jock itch. It is easily treatable by taking 4 to 6 weeks of treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Wrong treatment with over the counter creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, dermi 5, betnovate dermikem OC candid B, hh zole leads to severe side effects and also repeated recurrences. please do not use super body wash over the affected areas. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Please contact me using online consultation for detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread for the on your body and also to other people living in the household.
