India had hot and humid climate and due to this people tend to sweat a lot in summer and rainy months. The sweating is also present in the hairy region around the arm pit and private parts. Due to this dampness, there is a recurrence of fungal infections again and again which manifest as itching. Even if you do not have fungal infection, the damness can also make one itch. The best remedy for this is : 1. wear cotton free flowing clothes to allow flow of air in and around private aprts 2. wear cotton loose underwear 3. Do not wear synthetic underclothes as it prevents the sweat from getting dried 4. If you feel sweaty, you may have a bath 2 times a day 5. Keep the hairs around private parts trimmed so that the sweat evaporates faster. 6. If you sweat a lot,or even after bath, wipe the vulval area from front to back.......wiping the private part area from back to front can drag bacteria from anal region to vagina dn cause itching, and fungal or mixed infections. 7. If you are sweating a lot, avoid wearing underclothes at sleep, and if required use some dusting powder in groin region
