Sensitive Area At The Top On Inner Thighs With Recurring Acne Breakouts With Foul Smell. How Can I Get Rid Of This?
Hi, I have a very sensitive area at the top of my inner thighs, this area is an area in which I have re-occuring boil breakouts and its been a few years that this has been happening so this area is all scared. In most cases its a very aukward problem to have, just the way I m sitting can sometimes result in a new boil to form. This is a very wet area for me for most of the day. Also there is a very digusting stench even right after I shower. How do I get rid of these boils and smell?

You might be having recurrent furunculosis, but the possibility of hidradenitis suppurativa should also be kept in mind. Have you gone for blood sugar examination?
