Hi doctor,Ive been having some itching and noticed what looks like dandruff in my groin area. I used my uncles hair clippers to trim the hair down there, and the next day, theres white stuff on my skin. Could this be an irritation or something else? What should I do?
Fungal infection or Ring worm.. when occurs in groin, called as jock itch.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema and infection, its a must to see and confirm the diagnosis for proper treatment..So, please send photos of the affected area for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
