<s>[INST] 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 [/INST] HiThanks for your queryYou 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 inspite 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 Dr Geetika Paul </s>
