[|Human|] I have an itch rash near the crease between my leg and pubic area And also have tiny red bumps on near belly button. Some are flat now but started out raised with a tiny whitehead. A few on lower stomach and hip too. The rash itches but the bumps on stomach and hip dont.
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor I would keep a possibility of Fungal infection of the groin folds (Tina courts) along with bacterial folliculitis of the lower abdomen and buttocks. Groin folds are a common site for fungal infection specially in hot and humid weather in summer, which is conducive for fungus growth. If I was the treating doctor I would suggest you an OTC topical antifungal cream e.g. clotrimazole cream, to be applied twice daily in the groin folds. An OTC antihistamine e.g. cetirizine 10 mg once daily would provide symptomatic relief from itching. Moreover, the perineal and pubic region is rich in resident bacterial flora. Sweating and humidity together with friction and rubbing provide a portal of entry into the skin, through the hair follicles, thus giving rise to Folliculitis. For the folliculitis, I would suggest an empirical course of an oral antibiotic for a week. My choice of oral antibiotic would have been either:Amoxicillin 500 mg in combination with clavulanic acid 125 mg, thrice daily for a weekORCephalexin 500 mg thrice daily for a weekORCefa Chat Doctor. An OTC topical antibacterial e.g. 2% Mupirocin, is to be applied over folliculitis lesions, twice daily. Bathing twice daily, wearing loose fitting cotton clothes, weight control and using an antifungal dusting powder regularly to make the area unfavorable for fungal growth are few general measures that would help in preventing recurrence.
