What Could Cause Severe Itching In The Vaginal Area?
I think I've ringworm in the genital area. First my brother had it then my mom got infected and finally me. I think using his towel is the cause. I'm 17. I'm really facing a lot of problem. It causes a severe itch. My mom has it on vaginal area and even in some parts of her body. This is unbearable. Please help us. Do confirm me the medicines I've to use. It's getting difficult. Please reply as soon as possible.
