Pubic areas are affects by jock itch
Itching in the pubic areas and thighs are creating a big problem for me. This started when I was 17-18. I used some of the medicines and ointment and it worked also but again it started itching. This is continuously happening and it's been 7-8 years now and still I am facing the same issue. I am fed of this. Last few months I have another problem like boils in those areas. Can you please suggest me how to get out of it.

You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the inner thighs and buttocks area. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, hh zole, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Please call me or contact me using online consult option with photos for detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread further on your body and also to other people living in the household.,
