Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.
An examination is required to exactly say what it is.
Do not peel the skin, it increases the chance of secondary infection. It might be due to friction. Avoid wearing tight under garment and use loose cotton underwear. It is better to get yourself examined by doctor to know what it is.
Hope this helps.
Take care
