Skin infection
I have recently observed rashes on my arms and thighs which are causing inflammation and are increasing in number day by day...is it a serious condition/symptom of something big or just some fungul infection due to seasonal change ? Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

It is indeed fungal infection. The treatment for fungal infection is simple. You have to take anti fungal tablets and creams for few weeks following which it resolves. Do not apply soap on that area and do not self treat with over the counter steroid creams. Mistreatment with steroid creams and self treatment with cheaper medicine is the most common reason for recurrent disease. You can contact me in private chat for prescription or visit a dermatologist. it needs to be treated as early as possible as it will spread further on your body and also to other people in the household.
