I'm really concerned about my pinky finger. A few days ago, it got really itchy, and I noticed a bubble-like thing on it. I popped it with a needle yesterday, and now it's gotten worse. It's slightly itchy, it hurts, and my finger seems swollen today. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm having this really persistent itching problem in the area between my legs, and it feels like it's been going on forever. It's super itchy and gives this intense burning sensation, almost like it's on fire. I tried some medicines I got from the local pharmacy - a tablet called LCetriver and a cream called Trioderm. They seemed to help, but as soon as I stopped using them, the itching flared up again, even worse. I should also mention that I've had a lot of body hair since I was a kid, and there's a lot in the itchy area too. Could my hormones be playing a part in this, and what should I do to finally get rid of this problem?
