Dry Patch On Skin On Hip, Itching After Contact With Water. Using Anti-fungal Cream. Cure?
Hello! I have had a dry patch of skin on my hip, it has been there now for at least two weeks! I have been given an anti fungal cream, & it hasnt cleared it up at all! It gets quite itchy after being in water, but otherwise it doesnt itch at all! Im just begining to think it is something to worry about, as it hasnt cleared up at all

Hi
dry patch of skin may be due to psoriasis or eczema as itching is also present.physical examination is needed to diagnose correctly and i advise you to consult dermatologist.
