Hi
I am male 27 years old. I moved to Scotland for work in 2015 as IT professional.
For first 1 year it was fine. But then I started to feel itchy on my inner thighs next to knees.i ignored it first.
Now I have been in Europe (now I am in Italy but same weather) and suffering from this for past 2 years
Itch is so bad at nights that I scratch in night and it start bleeding. The moment I come back from office and take off my pants the itch begins.
Sometime I have itch on buttocks and arms and back also. But they are not severe.
The inner thighs and legs below knees are now scarred. There are many scar.
The itch start with a little bump (like mosquito bite) and itches bad. When I am awake I can control it but not in sleep.
I have tried using best moisturiser and creams. They help for a day or so but it starts again.
I don't know what else to be done.
Please help.
It started 2 years ago.
I visited a doctor in India but he gave me some soap and medicine not helpful. It didn't do.

You are probably suffering from what Dermatologist call urticaria. Common causes are food allergy, infection or drugs taken for some condition. It presents with itching resulting in formation of red rashes which we call hives or wheals. Although in most cases cause remains unknown in spite of a thorough search. It can be treated with medicines so that you do not get any new hives. The treatment should be prolonged until it resolves which usually takes 1 to 6 months. Please call me or contact me through online consult option for further details and treatment..

Fungal infection.. Also called jock itch, when occurs in groin.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema, bacterial and viral infection, doctor need to see to confirm the diagnosis..So, meet me in my clinic or do direct online consultation by sending photos for detailed information and medicine for treatment.
