What Causes Chronic Rash On Inside Of Thigh And Lower Scrotum?

I have a chronic rash on the inside of my left thigh, crotch and part of my lower scrotum. It is characterized by reddish bumps at the base of my hair follicles in groups of approximately 8 per square inch. I wear a gel liner under a hard plastic prosthetic socket on my upper left leg. There is an obvious association. I have tried anti-fungal and anti-bacterial creams to no avail. Could I have a contact dermatitis condition?

hello.

Anti-fingal and anti-bacterial creames should be used longer time, very patiently, sometimes even fo 3 - 4 weeks. Also you should wear more cotton underwear.
You also should visit your dermatologist, since you may need some corticosteroids creame localy, that might be helpfull.

All teh best.
