Sticky and itchy discharge below crotch
I have itching black flaky skin at my inner thighs. It gets very itchy and smelly if I sit too long on fibre chair. Some smelly sticky substance starts secreting which is not sweat. It gets worse if I don't bath even once. I tried treatments for eczema but I dont see them working.
My crotch is always very warm but I stead of sweat I see this weird substance. Please help me it is causing a lot of trouble in my social interactions. Even without the substance the itch gives an un pleasant smell.
