Hi. Greetings. Yes. It could be due to a fungal infection. However, it is not advisable to take those medicines without any confirmation of the diagnosis. So please send photo of the lesion on follow up messaging or see a qualified dermatologist near you. You could use an anti perspirant to control sweating to prevent infection in the long run. Warm regards.
