Itching
Good day
I have an itching rash between my legs. It's now about 3 years. It's not really around my genitals, but more on the inside of my legs. The infected skin is red and looks dry. What could I use to take the rash away and stop the itching?

James, it sounds like it might just be a superficial fungal infection. You can try an antifungal cream like Lamisil® and if that doesn’t help with 1-2 weeks, the best would be to get something stronger like Travocort®. If it still doesn’t want to go away the best would be to see a dermatologist. Good luck.
