instruction: hello doctor I have rashes on my inner thighs they are itchy and have infected areas of dark color there is no pus but just itchiness
output: hi it seems the rash and itching on the inner thighs could probably be due to a fungal infection of the skin this is very common especially in tropical countries and more so in the hot humid summers to accurately diagnose the same further information like images of the affected area total duration of the rash any other areas affected any discoloration of nails etc are needed if it is indeed a fungal infection the following can be kept in mind treatment of fungal infections includes applications which contain ketoconazole sertaconazole luliconazole etc oral antifungal like terbinafine and itraconazole are often used in combination for better clearance and reducing recurrence local hygiene is very important taking bath daily drying the skin folds after bath keeping soap and towels separate and drying your clothes in sunlight and ironing them before wearing will help to kill the fungal spores so I will recommend evaluation by a dermatologist to decide on the treatment I hope this helps
