why is your inner thigh itchy
Friction can happen when the thighs rub together. The friction results in irritation of the skin of the inner thighs, leading to bumps on inner thighs. The irritation can cause a heat rash called miliara. Irritated skin often leads to blockage of the sweat glands and the formation of pink, red or white bumps. Common symptoms are itching or a prickly feeling in thighs.
Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a pretty common fungal infection of the groin and upper thighs. Jock itch is also sometimes called crack fungus, crotch itch, bag rot or crotch rot, dhobi itch (after Indian washermen). It is a common fungal infection that affects the skin of your inner thighs, buttocks and genitals. Men and women encounter the disease worldwide, although it is seen more often in the humid tropics.
