I've had this strange itching the past couple of weeks right where the thigh meets the pubic area but still on the thigh. It's kind of bumpy I would say, red, itchy, and peels every once in a while. I don't know if there's any STD's with these symptoms, but does anyone know of what's going on? Please help
I'm a big guy and I get something like that when I do excessive exercise in hot weather. A good long bath and then keeping it as dry as possible helps a lot. I would stretch naked by a fan to keep it dry and stuff.
When it's really bad I get athletes foot cream and apply it to the area. I usually ask the pharmacist for what is better and he knows exactly what I need. It's athletes foot cream but maybe a certain kind is better than the other, dunno.
It's jock itch I had it before and I would scratch like crazy!!! Put anti fungal cream it works magically!!
It's a skinfold area and if you're in the northern hemisphere and the weather's been warm, it might be heat-rash or chapping.
It's not liable to be an STD/STI because it's localised to your thigh, not your genitals.
Treat it by keeping the area as dry as possible (i.e. use baby powder and don't undertake heavy exercise that could make you sweat). The rash can get infected so an anti-bacterial, hypo-allergenic soap is not a bad call, either.
