Today I noticed a small purple spot on my thigh close to my groin. It s about the size of a nickel and when I touch it the entire area is indented. I haven t gained weight or anything so I don t think it could be a stretch mark, it also is not painful.
The purple spots on thigh near groin might be candidosis ..a fungal infection caused by Candida albicans. There may not be any symptoms. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. Antifungal like ketoconazole or Itraconazole for few weeks.Apply antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream. Take a Sitz bath in dettol containing water. I think, you may be alright. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
