My son is 5 years old and from last few days he is complaining of itching in his underarms. Earlier it is on both underarms so in starting 3-4 days I gave him anti allergic medicines and creams and try home remedies also. But now itching is on and off like after 8-10 hours or while he is sleeping and either left or right underarm. When my son scratch his underarm the whole underarm area become red and big wide patches come but after some time this whole thing disappear and only small red lines left especially on his right underarm. Please help what is it and why is it happening?

For skin problems, we need to see the case to come to any conclusion. Without visualizing the condition, it is difficult to come to any conclusion regarding skin disease. So if possible, do visit the clinic or book an online appointment for the treatment. Fungal infection usually occurs recurrently, so the type of infection needs to be analysed. It may be either allergic, fungal, urticaria, eczema, psoriasis, lupus or any other disease. For this, you need to take proper homeopathic treatment along with maintaining of hygienic conditions.
