Fungal Looking Rash On Thighs, Buttocks, Under The Arm. Took Oral Steroid, OTC Creams. How Can I Overcome This Problem?
Yes, I have some type of fungal looking rash that I have tried OTC creams that don't work. I work out daily and I do sweat a lot. The rash appears on the thighs, buttocks, and under the arms and looks round circular. The only thing that seems to work is an oral steroid Millipred. I shower at least twice daily and always before bed.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You must confirm your condition as fungal infection by consulting your doctor. Always wear cotton inner clothes and maintain genital hygiene. Dry yourself completely after having shower. Apply the creams at night after shower and before going to bed. You can use deodorants with anti perspirant combination.
hope this helps
