Brief Answer:
Fungal infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
It's looking like fungal infection.
I treat such cases with a combination of oral and topical antifungals.
A combination of oral fluconazole and topical clotrimazole cream works well.
It is safe and effective.
You can try this in consultation with your doctor.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
