Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

It sounds like a fungal infection. The fungus are the normal commensals of the genitals which are kept under control by the helpful organisms. whenever there is change in the environment these fungus will multiply and produce these symptoms.

I would suggest you to follow
1.Maintain good hygiene by keeping the area clean and dry.
2.Sugar level should be kept under control by taking appropriate anti diabetic drug.
3.Apply antifungal cream over the itching area.You can apply neosporin cream and can take azithromycin tablet and candidazole pessary.
4.Oral antihistamines to reduce itching.
Thank you.
