From the image and your symptoms of redness and burning after applying moisturizer or sunscreen, this could be due to skin irritation or allergic contact dermatitis, especially if your skin barrier is currently sensitive. Next Steps ✔️ Stop using the products that cause burning for now ✔️ Use a gentle cleanser and a simple fragrance-free moisturizer ✔️ Avoid scrubs, actives, or new skincare products until the skin settles ✔️ You can take an online consultation with me so I can assess your skin more closely and guide you with the appropriate treatment as i deal with many patients with similar issues everyday. Helpful Tip When the skin barrier is irritated, minimal and gentle skincare helps the skin recover faster.

Most probably it can be fungal infection. Please provide history regarding duration of the problem, if any other body site is also affected, application of any medicinal creams.
