What Causes Severe Itching Along With Bruising On The Inner Thigh?
Hi, I had an itch on my upper inner thigh that I scrarched a little during the night, when I ve looked at the area this morning there is a large purple and red bruise in the spot that is itchy, the bruise itself when pressed is sore i wondered if it may be a coincidence but can t think of any event that would have caused the bruise, I am a little tired at the moment as I ve been away on a small holiday and my left eye is twitching a little, which I assumed was tiredness, could all these things be connected? Is there anything to worry about?

As you have mentioned in your history it looks like fungal infection of your thigh. For this you have to take some antiniotics preferably doxycycline after an opinion of your doctor with tab avil or tab cetrizine 8-12 hourly for itching and redness with tab rantac or tab famotid empty stomach. You can use clop-g cream or candid-d powder for local application.
