Check blood: Could be high RBCs. Sometimes too many red cells can cause itching after a hot shower or a hot area. Hope this helps. Need to see your doctor.

Xerosis: This could be from xerosis (dry skin), but can also be from several things. I would try a good skin moisturizer and if it doesn't help, see your family physician.

Sure you're right?: Ketoconazole is a very good antifungal and should work for tinea versicolor. If it's not, you may need to get this checked to make sure it really is a fungal infection, and not something like pityriasis rosea or a contact dermatitis. A dermatologist may help in this regard.

Skin fungus: Sounds like a superficial fungal infection. Go see a doctor, possibly a dermatologist who can examine you and treat you after a diagnosis is established. It is easily dealt with. Good luck.

Depends: Your report says that you already have had umbilical hernia surgery. How long ago was that surgery? Was mesh used? Possibilities coukd range from nothing wrong to recurrent hernia. If concerned needs a physical exam with your doctor.

See your doctor: See your doctor to get a diagnosis and treatment. You can use an over the counter antihistamine and cool compresses to help the itching till you can see your doctor.
