Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the image. I have reviewed the image and think this is probably a fungal infection. I will recommend miconazole 2% cream to be applied twice daily for a week, Let me know how it goes and let me see further images at day 5 and day 10 after starting treatment.

I wish you well and keep me posted.
