persistent itching without visible rash or redness can have many underlying causes such as dry skin, sweat irritation, mild fungal growth, or even internal factors like stress or allergies. While using Candid powder can help with superficial fungal issues, it may not fully address the root cause if the issue is deeper or unrelated to a fungus. It’s important to take a detailed history to better understand any lifestyle, seasonal, or health-related triggers. I’d recommend booking a chat consultation so I can guide you more specifically after asking the right questions

Since you’re saying there is no rash and just itching, I would need to know more, about general hygiene, sharing of towels/napkins and general living conditions. It could be fungal like you rightly pointed out and started on candid powder. But it could also be something like scabies which comes in bouts, especially at night and in the morning. The treatment for both would be completely different.
You can visit my clinic and I would be able to help you better.
Next Steps
To confirm, examination of the itchy areas is necessary to confirm the diagnosis and start treatment
Health Tips
Please show it to a general practitioner or dermatologist

Dear Practo User.
Thanks for sending across your query.
Persistent itching without visible rash may be due to dryness, sweat irritation, or early fungal infection. Candid powder helps, but a proper diagnosis is key.
