What Do Red Rashes On The Stomach And Groin Area Indicate?

Hi about a week ago i started noticing many red splotches on my stomach and around my genital area. It has gotten worse and is spreading up my chest and going into my armpit/upper arm. I don t understand what could be causing this, and i don t know if it is serious or not. Please help!

Hi,

Your problem can be due to fungal infection. Applying anti fungal agents like Miconazole or Terbinafine cream or lotion will be helpful. You can also take antihistamines like Cetrizine (Zyrtec ) once daily.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.

Thanks,
Dr. Nishad BN
