Fungal infection under the arms and in the genital area can cause itching, burning, and discomfort. Keep the affected areas clean and dry and wear loose cotton clothing to reduce moisture. Avoid using harsh soaps or tight clothes that may irritate the skin. Consult a doctor for suitable antifungal treatment to clear the infection.
