Hi two days ago my inner thighs started to burn really bad and when looked at the area it was coming from it was really red and smelled really bad I am wondering what it is and how to treat it. It doesn t itch just burns and I can barely walk because of it
Hi. As per your case history you are having intertrigo groin, my treatment advice is - 1. Wear loose clothes and maintain good hygiene. 2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it. 3. Spray antifungal powder like clotrimazole powder after applying cream twice daily. 4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks. Dr. Harshit bhachech. MBBS, DDVL.
