Hello Helmy21
The complaints you experience can be caused by several possibilities such as:
Prickly heat, fungal infections, hives, and others
Prickly heat is a condition where the sweat gland ducts are blocked in the body. This causes itching and is usually followed by redness of the skin. Fungal infections can also cause itching and are usually accompanied by changes in skin color that can be lighter, darker or reddish. Hives are itchy skin conditions accompanied by elevation and redness that are usually associated with allergic conditions, hot or cold temperatures, side effects of drugs and others.
To distinguish what you are experiencing, it takes a more detailed history and direct examination by a doctor, especially when itching occurs. Without it, your condition cannot be known. Later the doctor will provide therapy according to what you are experiencing.
What you can do in the meantime:
Avoid scratching the itchy area Take care of personal hygiene Change clothes regularly Avoid using drugs outside of doctor's advice
I hope this helps.
