HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this may not be viral infection but this could be some eczema and in my opinion this can be best tried with "Mometasone cream" no need to worry about this, try to keep the area clean take care for hygiene, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
