Itching in the inner thighs for one month is commonly due to fungal infection, sweating, friction, or tight clothing. Keep the area clean and completely dry, wear loose cotton undergarments, and avoid tight jeans. Do not use steroid combination creams without advice. You may gently wash with mild soap and keep the area dry. If redness, spreading rash, or persistent itching continues, proper examination is important. You may visit our clinic for accurate diagnosis and suitable treatment.
