What Could The Itching On Inner Thighs, Penis Be?
Hi, I was in navy boot camp for about a month. About halfway through that month I was having very intense itching on my inner thighs and penis. Sometimes it got so bad it would wake me up at night. There was no bumping at first. Then I got a few mosquito bite like bumps on my thighs but still none on my penis. But my penis itched so bad I scratched it raw.. Now there are three bumps that when I scratch them, they get big; but they go back down over night. They have no discharge and they don t hurt, just itch. My thighs still itch very badly too but there are no bumps.

Hello, Thanx to contact healthcare magic. We wish you a very happy health. If I am your treating doctor I would like to tell you that your sign and symptom that you have describe is suggestive of Tenia infection a type of fungal infection. I think you should think for candid ointment. Apply after a bath in the morning and than three times a day. Continue untill 2 week. Also change the undergarments twice daily. That stops fungus to grow and your symptoms subsides. If you have anything else to ask kindly contact me. Dr. Arun Tank; infectious disease specialist.
