Suggest Remedies For Itchy, Red And Sore Bumps On Buttocks And Thighs

Hi, The other day i noticed my butt cheek was itchy. At first I thought I got bit by a mosquito. The one small bump became a cluster of red itchy bumps which got sore after a few days . Last night the cluster turned into a second to the side of small red bumps. They are quite sore when i move. The second cluster is more on my back thigh. Could you please suggest anything. cannot get intoa drs today

Hi,

It looks like you are infected with Jock Itch (Dermatophytes), that is causing you itchy bumps all over the buttocks, inner thighs & may spread to the groins. Apply topical antifungal creams like Econazole on the affected area & take oral antifungals like Fluconazole.

In the meantime, wash the affected are & keep it dry, wear cotton loose fitting clothes, avoid harsh soaps, do not indulge in sex & do not share your toiletries.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
