A member asked:

My groin always feel itchiness, i don't know why fungi always occur since i have proper hygiene?

Possible feet: If definite fungal the possibility of having fungal growth on feet if that is case check out and in any case i would put on socks before you put on your underpants as this gets the fungus on the pants bringing it to the groin hope this helps.
