Skin boils
I have been experiencing huge pus filled boils on my thighs , buttocks and even sometimes inside the nose. They are almost 5 cm in radius (approx) . These are recurrent and I get one almost every week. It is very painful (I sometimes take pain killers). This started at the beginning of summer this year. But I have been suffering from this since summer of 2018. They keep coming and going. Every few months. I have taken diabetes test. It seems normal. (Although diabetes runs in my family on dad's side) Please help.

Talk to experienced dermatologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
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.
