Itchiness, redness in Inner thighs
I have been getting extreme itchiness and lines kinda rashes in my groin area and now in inner thighs, it started from lower abdomen and groin area a month ago and now in inner thighs it has become red after itchiness and sometimes feels burning sensation as well and gets puffy after itching also the previous ones near lower abdomen have dried up but the skin still has the scars with little flaky skin
It's very hard to control the itchiness, Kindly help me with the best suggestions..
I'm not getting comfortable in going to see a doctor because the issue is around the pubic area and it's a little awkward for me..
Please advise and provide a solution

Perfectly understand your reluctance to visit a doc in person.
Might I suggest an Online Consultation on this App with a Dermatologist of your choice?
Your problem suggests to me (from your description) that or may not be a simple fungal infection but something we allude to as Seborrheic Dermatitis and Striae Dystensiae (stretch marks for the lay-person)
Stress and dry skin will most probably be factors if my intuition is spot on.
Next Steps
Consult me or any Dermat Online
Health Tips
Moisturize with any moisturizer at your disposal and wear loose fitting clothing and remain in a cool ambient environment.
