What Causes Tenderness In The Crotch Area For A 72-year-old?
I am 72, and frequently have tenderness to touch from clothing in my crotch area, plus a burny feeling. I have recently lowered my sugar intake, wondering if I have a yeast growth problem. I do not wear tight fitting clothing, and often use hydrocortisone 1% cream to soothe the area. I am maybe 20 lbs overweight, but more active than many people my age. The only medication I take is a nasal spray for allergies, and do walk and some yoga, tho not daily; probably 3 times per week.
