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.
Hi my daughter is 15 years old and has been complaining of an itchy and sweaty anus. Also she has quite a few large red pimples in her butt and just outside. She is a volleyball player and is in season now. They wear spandex shorts which I am sure does not help with keeping her dry. what can we do to help alleviate this?

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your daughter's problem can be due to fungal infection. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful in identifying. Applying ointments containing anti fungal agents like miconazole and corticosteroid like hydrocortisone will be helpful. This is available as over the counter in brands like daktarin. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
