    Red bumps and itching on the inner thighs of men may be caused by fungal infection, eczema, or papular urticaria.

    1. Fungal infection

    Fungal infection may be caused by athlete's foot, or because there are fungi on pets at home. It is also possible that the local area is moist and airtight for a long time, which may easily lead to fungal infection, resulting in red bumps and itching on the inner thighs. Antifungal drugs can be treated under the guidance of a doctor.

    2. Eczema

    Eczema is generally caused by immune abnormalities, or it may be caused by endocrine and metabolic diseases, or caused by eating some spicy food for a long time. Red bumps and itching on the inner thighs will appear, which can be treated with glucocorticoid drugs.

    3. Papular urticaria

    Papular urticaria may be caused by insect bites, or it may be caused by hymenopteran insect bites, which causes red bumps and itching on the inner thighs, which can be improved with antihistamine drugs.

    In daily life, you should wear some loose cotton clothes with good breathability, do a good job in personal hygiene, and avoid scratching the local area with your hands to avoid aggravating symptoms and affecting the recovery effect.
