Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy hives on the inner thighs and arms. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to

-Apply ice pack to reduce redness and itchiness.
- Maintain good personal hygiene.
- Avoid silky clothes as it leads to more heat generation.
- Use a powder to avoid sweat collection and apply calamine lotion at the sites of the lesion.

If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like clindamycin, oral antifungal or antibacterial depending upon the diagnosis .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
