<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Friday night, I found a rash or something like a rug burn on my left leg, its on the inside of my thigh. I wore a pair of old cheerleading pants from 4 years ago and i havent worn them in a while. Now that Im a bit older they dont fit perfect like they used to. I thought they caused it by rubbing against my leg. So I ended up putting triple antibiotic ointment on it to help moisturize it and keep it clean and I went to bed and did not cover it nor think anything else about it. But after it scabbed up, it peeled off today and it was just a pink circle just like any other scab. But what confused me what the fact that the area around the rash was getting very dry and flaking off and its getting sore like that one spot. I have not worn those pants since that day and Im not sure if its spreading and I dont know what to put on it because it dont want to make it worse.  <response>: Hello dear, The rash in your inner thigh can be either due to dermatitis or fungal infection Tina in that region.
