Posted on Wed, 4 Feb 2015
Question: I have a perfectly circular rash on my inner thigh. I also have illnesses so was wondering if it's anything to worry about? My illnesses are crohns, arthritis, and depression. I am also undergoing treatment via a cream for genital warts. Can any of my medication, or any of my illnesses be responsible?

Brief Answer:
Could just be a fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

I understand your concern.I do not think this single circular rash is related to any of your disease or treatment.If it would have been so there would have been rash throughout the body.

In my opinion it is a fungal infection.Do not apply any soap ,oil or moisturizer on it for few weeks.Try applying antifungal cream like clotrimazole.This should definitely help.

Feel free to ask more.
