Skin irritation with persistent itching. being experienced mostly on my forearms, armpits and behind my knees. started approximately 3-4 weeks ago?

PCP or Dermatologist: The location of armpits and behind the knees irritation with persistent itching are consistent with moisture and warmth seeking fungal skin infections or parasites. One should see PCP or Dermatologist for diagnosis and fast relief. Self medication might not be helpful at this time or may confuse matters.
