Detailed Answer:
everyone thank you for sending the question.

A rash in this area of the body is most commonly caused by a fungal infection. This can usually be treated with an over-the-counter topical cream.

I would recommend that you consider trying topical clotrimazole on this area for 3 to 5 days.

If your symptoms do not improve or things seem to be getting worse I would recommend that you talk to beach with your primary care doctor for a physical examination to see if some type of alternative treatment might be needed.

Thank you again for sending your question.

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
