A member asked:

I am obese. my under belly and thighs that it touches is grey and itchy. it ask produces a greyish sticky film. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably fungus: Most likely it is due moisture from the extra fat. That then allows fungus to grow. Make sure you clean the area well when you bathe every day and keep it dry with powder or something like gold bond.
