Can Applying Sudocream Help In Removing Rash On Abdomen And Thighs Which Is Spreading?
I have what appears to be a rash of sorts where it is on my lower abdomen and top of my thighs, they appear to be red blemishes which some hurt to touch but when I apply pressure they go away. They aren't obsessively itchy. It is not a dense rash it is quite sparingly spread and it is only on my front. Is it a sweat rash or something? And would sudocrem help ?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely fungal infection called tinea corporis. Sudocream is a nappy rash cream which has contents that can act also against fungus. But it is mild and suited for babies. I usually treat my patients with antifungal ointments like miconazole or clotrimazole. I also give fluconazole tablet weekly once to stop recurrence of it. It is also advised to keep the areas dry and sweat free.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.

Sudocream is a antisceptic cream. Your rashes is to be examined by skin doctor.It is to be ascertain whether it is allergic or fungal rashes. Stop using ointment. Keep the area dry. Apply powder over rashes. Take oral levocetrizine tablet. Clean your clothes in water ading dettol.Finally take advices of skin doctor.
