Itching problem

2026-06-30 06:12:46
Hello Doctor, I have been experiencing persistent itching around my buttocks, especially along the anal/ butt crack, for the past 1-2 weeks. I have also noticed some red rash-like marks around my waist. Similar red marks have appeared on my scrotum, the area beneath the scrotum extending toward the anal region, and on my inner thighs. In addition, I have been noticing a significant unpleasant odor coming from the private area. The itching has become quite uncomfortable and is causing me significant discomfort. Could you please advise me on what this might be and recommend the appropriate medicine or treatment? I have also attached photos of both the front and back private areas for your assessment. I have slightly blurred the penis area in the front image for privacy purposes. Could you please review the images and let me know if you can see any visible rashes, marks, or other abnormalities? Thank you.

Hello, Thank you for sharing the detailed history and photographs. Based on your symptoms (itching, foul odor, and involvement of the groin, scrotum, inner thighs, and anal region), along with the images, this appears more suggestive of a fungal infection (tinea cruris/jock itch) or intertrigo with a secondary fungal/bacterial infection. However, an online assessment cannot confirm the diagnosis, and a physical examination is recommended. Until you are examined: Keep the affected area clean and completely dry. Wear loose cotton underwear and change it regularly. Avoid self-medicating with steroid combination creams (such as Quadriderm, Panderm, Candid-B, Lobate-GM), as they can worsen fungal infections. If the rash spreads rapidly, becomes painful, develops pus, or you have diabetes or fever, seek medical attention promptly. You may book an online consultation if you would like a detailed evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

You might be having a fungal infection. Which is very common in the parts and difficult to cure completely with conventional treatment. I suggest taking proper homoeopathic treatment for complete cure. You can consult me online. WA: Nine four zero Nine Three Seven Two six zero zero
