Hi XXXXXXX,

Thank you for posting your query.

The most likely cause of rash in inner thighs is a fungal infection, called as tinea cruris.

There is redness, along with itching in this condition.

You can use neo clobenate GM cream in the affected area to get relief.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any more queries.

Wishing you good health,

Thank you for getting back.
You should apply the cream twice a day- first in the morning after bath, and second at bed time. It should be continued for 4-6 weeks.
After bath, do not leave the area wet, you should wipe it clean.
These measures would ensure that it does not spread.
Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM
