I've been dealing with this itching on my inner thighs and buttocks for the last three months, and I've noticed the same rash on my left-hand wrist and both my right hand and leg joint. I've tried a bunch of antifungal creams and meds like flucan 150mg, cefadroxil 500mg, and Levosiz, and then switched to terbinafine tablets and cream. Been on these for three months now, but there's been no improvement. In fact, the redness got worse over the last four days. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how to get rid of this?

I've been experiencing this strange sensation after walking for about 510 minutes. It feels like a needle prick on my skin, followed by some rashes, but they disappear after like 15 minutes. Any idea what could be going on? Should I be worried about this?

The symptoms you described, a needle prick sensation on the body followed by rashes that resolve within 15 minutes after walking, may indicate Cholinergic Urticaria, a heat-induced allergic reaction that causes hives and itching; other possible causes include Exercise-Induced Urticaria, Stress-Induced Hives, or even an allergic reaction to clothing, detergent, or environmental factors
