Rash That Itches Between Thigh And Pelvic, Spreading After Rubbing With Alcohol. Cancer History. Related ?

Well I have a problem with a rash that itches me everyday. It is in the middle between my thigh and pelvic. I have had it for awhile I am 49 years old it started small. Now it has spread I rub some alcohol on it and it soothe it for awhile then it flare up again I was also using cocoa butter stick after rubbing the alcohol. Now I be loosing some of the skin as if it was a bump. I am a cancer survivor. I had breast cancer four years later lung cancer. I've been cancer free for over eight years. I am in menopause stages could this play a part. Please help.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having fungal infection on the part.
Do not apply alcohol.
Take oral anti-fungal tablet like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Keep local part clean, dry and airy.
Avoid using synthetic inner wears.
Ok and take care.
