<human>: Hi there, I am currently experience chronic, uncomfortable itchyness around my genital area. It first started with that I thought was thrush, so I got an over-the counter medicine for that. But I found the creams releaved my itchyness only periodically and stung a little when applied. As this has kept going, I have developed a rash around my pubic mound - looks like a lot of pimples / ingrown hairs which have become more and more itchy as it grows. I also have noticed that the skin becomes flaky and peels off. I have a little more discharge than usual, but havent noticed an abnormal smell.
<bot>: Hi there, i think things are not very clear and of course it's not possible for you to tell each and everything in detail. Now there are two things in mind as I gathered according to your condition,1:IT could have been a Yeast infection and the cream that you have bought over the counter may contain steroids and after the application there is a steroid induced acne, which you have referred as "lots of pimples". So if that is the case then you need to stop the cream.2:You might have developed a condition called Lichen Simplex Chronic us in which the skin becomes thickened, Chat Doctor. At this point I think you need to see a doctor so that he can have a good look at the rash and associated factors and proceed further. The only advise I would like to give you is to apply White Petroleum Jelly at the sites regularly and take Tablet Zyrtec 10 mg once a day before going to bed. Thanks very much, and all the set.
