I get severe itching near groin area at corners of thigh, which at times stretch to anus region in Mumbai. Outside Mumbai in other dry areas I am much better. The itching goes up with humidity and heat. In winter in Mumbai, I feel better. In the past have applied some skin creams with some steroid, which used to give me temporary relief after application. Now application of such cream has been advised to be stopped as the skin in these areas is getting thinner. The problem is there for last 8 years and often disturbs in my sleep and also during day while in office.
