Could Itching In Inner Thighs And Back Be Due To Frequent Masturbation?

Hi, I am having itching in my inner thighs and my backs. My age is 32, height-175cm, weight 65 kgs.

I am having this issue for years together (may be for 7 or 8 years). Please advise what to do. My body becomes very hot even under normal conditions. And, this itching increases normally when I wear Jeans/Pants and/or after traveling. Could this be due to masturbating, as I do it quite often?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might have developed fungal infection.
The area of groin is very moist and is prone to develop these infections.
Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals.
Various antifungal powders like candid are availabe.
These can help reduce the moisture as well as control the infection.
Please dont use any steroid, it can worsen your condition
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
