Question : I have itching in between my inner upper thighs and my vagina. There is no redness, until I scratch and the area is always warm and moist. I have only tried the vagisil cream.

Brief Answer:
Fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about itching.

This appears to be fungal infection of skin between thighs.

I suggest you use antifungal ointments available over the counter. Antifungal ointments like Candid can be used.

This will give relief.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
