Suggest Remedies For Recurring Itchy Rashes On The Buttocks

Hi I have a recurring rash on my bottom. It is itchy and then seems to scab over on it s own. It first appears as a mild red mark and seems to scab over and then ultimately goes away in about 2 weeks. I get it every 3-4 months and always starts in the same spot. I cannot find a photo that looks like it.

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms might be due to fungal infection.
You can take antifungal like Flucanazole 150 mg once a week along with a skin cream containing antifungal.
I would recommend that a clinical evaluation by a Dermatologist will be helpful in planning your further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Regards. Thanks.
