Itchy Rash, Red Bumps, Dryness On Armpits, Thigh, Crotch, Penis
For a few weeks now I have been suffering from a itchy rash on my armpits, thighs, crotch and penis. My scrotum has become itchy and dry and the head of my penis has developed a dry roughness on the head with red bumps. My armpits and chest have small red bumps too. I itch on my legs as well, especially at night, when my whole body itches badly. I feel pretty miserable.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You must consult a doctor who can rule out fungal infection in you. Full clinical examination is necessary and if confirmed, treatment is usually with application of anti fungal ointment for few days. Please avoid wearing wet clothes and dry yourself completely after having bath. Also wear cotton inner wear and maintain genital hygiene.
hope this helps
