Suggest Treatment For Itchiness In Pubic Area And Buttock

For over 10 years I have had a small area of skin on my bum cheek/upper thigh but close to my pubic area that has caused me no pain or itchiness. I ve also been tested regularly over the years for stis and nothing has come up. I m a sexual health worker so I know about STIs and this doesn t resemble any of them not to mention I have a full time partner and he is also clear. The best way for me to describe this area is almost like a newly burst blister when the skin has just burst. It s kind of loose and is slightly darker in colour than the rest of my skin. Not enough for anyone to have pointed it out to me mind you. It was just out of curiosity really that I ask you what this night be. I ve just accepted it to be some sort of skin tag or something. There have been no changes in over ten years. Thanks

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi thanks for using HCM
Don't worry about this.
It's simple fungal infection that produces this dark pigmentation and small blisters and small tears are due to scratching you on that part.
Apply antifungal cream without steroid, SERTACONAZOLE 30 g to be use both pubic and groin areas
That scratch and tear part cover with Mupirocin cream.
Cap itraconazole 200 mg for 12 days after food
And clotrimazole dusting powder on both sides will give good result.
Hope this answer helps you .
