[|Human|] Hello Doctor, I have fungal infection on my thighs that leads to rashes & the whole area gets black in color. I have been having this problem on & off for quite sometime now. I used to use Tinaderm solution and it used to give me temporary relief. But now it s not available. I went to a dermatologist who has given me Citrezol...have been taking it for 3 weeks now but it s just slightly reduced..not fully gone. Is there a substitute for Tinaderm? Is there a permanent cure for this fungal rash?? Please help I am so fed up of this problem. Also I get this only when I am in India. Never had this in UK...and I find I get this rash when I use synthetic clothes :(
[|AI|]  Hi, I can understand your concern for fungal infection on thighs leading severe rashes. You have not told us your relevant details like your age, sex and occupation. After reading your query it appears to be due to Fungal infection of the thigh area which is quite common due to heat and humidity. Fungal infection of the skin is quite common due to infection and hygiene as well as most commonly due to diabetes. Go for your blood sugar check up to rule out diabetes and raised blood sugar if you are more than 40 years of age. To prevent the further spread maintain good hygiene wash it two times properly. Stay away from hot and humid climate. You can use clotrimazole cream or terminating cream over the affected areas under medical supervision. I suggest you to take antifungal tablet by mouth such as fluconazole 150 mg alternate days for 15 days. Take care.
