What Causes Itching Sensation In The Armpits?
i have been suffering with an underarm rash/fungus. My dermatologist is treating me as having a fungus I am applying EConazole Nitrate & Clobestasol propionate. This has not completely taken away my problem. When I sweat it returns and is becoming increasingly itchy making me itch all over. I have to take benedryl to stop the itching. My wife is recommending that i do a cleanse with a 7day cleanse

Hi,
Taking several washes throughout the day. Dry it & sprinkle an antifungal dusting powder like Neosporin, changing clothes wet with sweat, forms basic need to hamper fungal growth. In the case of no relief with self-care meet a dermatologist for oral antifungal medicine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
