Hi what you are explaining is most likely intertrigo where the skin rubs against itself, such as the groin, armpits, and under the breasts. The warm, moist environment in these areas can promote the growth of yeast and bacteria, which can lead to inflammation, itching, and pain. Tight clothing and hot weather can also exacerbate the condition.
Wear Lose clothes
Avoid external friction
Keep the areas dry
Do not rub
Seek a dermatologist locally or you can book an online consult for proper assessment diagnosis and treatment
Looking forward to help .
Thanks !
