How To Heal Long Time Standing Mediated Rash In Between Buttocks?
embarrassing question but I noticed I develop a rash between my buttox when working on my feet for long periods of time. is this something to be concerned about? It goes away usually after a nights sleep, but I work on a kitchen line and I got to move fast and I sweat a lot, so could this be a sweat rash? what causes this and how can I avoid it?
I would keep a possibility of a Fungal Infection. Sweat trapped in between the body folds like buttocks, groins, axilla provides an ideal atmosphere for the fungus to proliferate.
As a treating doctor i would have asked you to use a topical anti-fungal cream e.g clotrimazole twice daily in between the body folds.
An OTC antihistamine once daily would provide you relief from itching associated with fungal infection.
An anti-fungal dusting powder regularly after the infection resolves would keep the folds dry and fungal infections at bay.
take care regards
