Hello,
Itching in inner thighs could be due to
-Increased body weight with excess sweating and friction in the area.
- Allergy to undergarment material or added fungal infection can add to it.
-You should start using cotton garments. Avoid excess sweating by frequent washes talcum powder sprinkling.
-Use antifungal dusting powder like Neosporin. If no relief consults a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
