A member asked:

I have itchy areas once scratched bumps/welts appear will disappear if i don't scratch. seem to travel from under arm to inner thigh to arm fold. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be yeast : Skin yeast infections are called tinea. They may present in areas you describe due to moisture and warm there. Try OTC nystatin powder and/or topical anti final cream. Resist the urge to scratch as that may spread it. If you have boils are ulcers as well, that needs MD evaluation.
