A member asked:

I have a rash around my waist and now its speading to my butt cheeks. what can i do to stop the itching and get rid of the rash?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Contact, fungal, etc: You could be allergic to something, such as detergent or fabric softener or the elastic in your underwear. It could be a yeast or fungus infection. If it is on one side only, and painful, it could be shingles. It's impossible to narrow it any further than that without a direct examination, so see a dermatologist.
