[|Human|] My husband had a weeping rash near his groin in the crevice between his thigh and stomach. it is hot and extends around his hip in a band about 4 inches in diameter . it is only weeping and rash-like in the crease. The rest is hot and inflamed. We were at a football game on the weekend and he used a portapotty there. But we have been home for 10 days in our own beds. could this be a spider bite or a bed bug. None of us has experienced itching or bite like symptoms. He has felt a little under the weather with flue like symptoms the last few days. He said this started on Wed. but never showed my until last night. I am very worried. He is on metformin only. Generally very healthy and 71 years old. XXXX
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Ask a doctor services. I have read your query. It looks like your husband is suffering from fungal infection. Fungus grows easily in sweaty, moist skin. Since you were in football game, he got it (due to moist/sweaty) skin. He should take shower, pat himself Chat Doctor.  Wear cotton clothes. He needs to take a course of oral fluconazole and apply clotrimazole cream in the affected areas. He can take a course of non sedating antihistamines. It should go away in 3-5 days. However, you are suggested to get it clinically examined by a dermatologist. Hope I have answered your query. Take care.
