Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Severe Itching On The Buttocks And Thighs?
I have very bad itching on my butt and thighs. It has been with me for a very long time now, and it has discolored my whole butt and inner thighs areas. My butt is now black in color and so embarrassing. Please help me get rid of this irritating itch.
Your symptoms seem to be related to tinea corporis which is a fungal infection. I suggest you to:
- Wash and dry the affected area with a clean towel.
- Apply the antifungal cream
- Change clothes especially underwear everyday
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
