Hi,
for the past several months i have had some sort of rash on both my inner thighs around my genital area. It's red and in patches, the skin where its red peels, and itches alot. It doesnt hurt, just itches. It seemed to have gotten alittle better a few weeks ago, but within a few days it was back to the way it was.Whatever help you could give me on how to treat this would be most appreciative.
Thanks
TC

It could be fungus or perhpas just chafing. Try applying clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 10 days. If that doesn't help, switch to 1% hydrocortisone twic w day for 10 days. If enither works, ask a doctor. (Both creams need no prescription.)
Best.
