Itchy skin patch due to sweating

2020-09-17 09:15:41
Developed a skin patch after scratching the sweaty portion under the arm. It's brown and rough and itches a lot, more or less looks like a fungal infection. Temporary relief after using itch guard. It does not have a ring like shape. Brown, dry, scaly patch. Similar patches developing on the back and under the other arm. Please advise.
