From your symptoms the possibility of intertrigo needs to be ruled out. It most commonly occurs due to bacterial,viral or fungal infection. An intertrigo usually appears red and raw-looking, and may also itch, ooze, and be sore.
Keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics.
Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap. Avoid any kind of cosmetics..
Next Steps
In case the symptoms persist then antifungals may be needed. Please consult us.
