Hi, thanks for your query.
You have not mentioned your age, which would have helped.
You seem to have fungal infection. Sweat and moisture facilitate the growth of fungi in this area.
Other possibility is of boils or bacterial infection.

You may take symptomatic treatment in the form of anti histamine and painkillers.
Maintain proper hygiene. Keep the area dry and put loose fitting clothes.
I suggest you to consult a dermatologist for examination and appropriate treatment.
Hope this helps you.
