<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.II developed a red itchy rash two days ago on my left labia. It is also very painful. Sharp nerve like burning. It has now spread to my inner thigh. I am overweight and am concerned about diabetes. Can you give me more information about this condition. I do have a slight discharge with no odor. Thank you  <response>: HiT hanks for your query seem to be having Candidiasis of the groin region. First some general precautions: Wear cotton clothes and undergarments in order to reduce the sweating. Do not apply any kind of oils moisturizing lotion over the affected area. Just give warm saline compresses over the affected area twice a day and then apply an antifungal cream. Something like clotrimazole cream helps in most cases. Also, you will need to take oral antifungals 2 weeks. In case of severe itching, take some antihistamine once a day. If inspire of the above measures, the lesions continue to persist or increase, then you might have to see a dermatologist for proper assessment and management. Hope it helps Chat Doctor.
