I have two qustions. One is my husband has extreme chaffing between his thigh and scrotum. What should he use to promote healing? Second is I have all over body itch ,i think from seasonal allergies. It eases some with benadryl. What else could I do or could it be?
HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor Your husband would need to reduce friction, heat and moisture. This means using cool clothes, keeping the areas separated as much as possible, using barrier creams between the affected areas. In addition, he may need a short course of a topical course of an antifungal and mild topical steroid (to reduce inflammation). In terms of your itching, it may be related to seasonal allergies. The oral anti histamines should help. Other causes of generalized itching are: liver disease, allergies to medications, thyroid disease, infections such as scabies. I hope this helps
