Itching in private parts
I have been facing severe itching around the panty lines. I also see round ring shaped boils. My skin around the itching site is also getting dark. I try to keep the area as dry as possible. This has been happening since 2 weeks now. I am applying SURFAZ-SN cream. If I do not apply it the condition worsens. Please help.

Greetings. Fungal infection is quite common. This is often related to humidity, tight clothing, excess sweating and accumulation of moisture. You'll need to keep the area dry, wear lose clothing. You'll need to see a QUALIFIED dermatologist for confirmation of infection and treatment with oral antifungals and creams. If there's resistance to one particular medicine another medicine may be needed depending on your improvement. DO NOT USE OVER THE COUNTER CREAMS LIKE SURFAZ -SN, BETNOVATE GM OR PAN DERM OR QUADRIDERM... this will only prolong the infection. Hope this helps.
