Jock itch is a condition in which the skin of the upper thighs, bottom or groin gets infected by fungi. The infection is more common amongst people who live in humid conditions as fungi thrive under moist and wet environments. When the groin or inner thighs are sweaty and not dry enough, they can serve as an ideal environment for fungi to thrive and quickly multiply.
What Are The Symptoms ?
Some of the typical symptoms of a jock itch infection are itchiness and redness in the affected region, round elevated rashes which may also be itchy, burning sensation and peeling, flaking or shredding of dry skin around the infected area.
How Is It Treated ?
Jock itch treatment is usually carried out with the use of antifungal ointments, sprays, creams or lotions. The infected area should be washed thoroughly and dried with a clean towel before applying any antifungal ointments or sprays. One should also make sure to use a seperate towel for the affected area and another towel for the rest of the body as jock itch can be contagious and can spread to others parts of the body. If the jock itch infection is severe, then seperate medication may be prescribed by your doctor.
