Brief Answer:
Seems to be due to a fungal infection.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. I have checked the attached images. Indeed, application of antifungals and moisturizers should help in resolution of the problems. It is not something severe, nevertheless, it needs to be treated. You may apply Candid (clotrimazole) powder and/or lotion topically a few times a day. Also feel free to use some moisturizing lotion like aloe vera lotion. If it itches, take some antiallergic like cetririzine tablet once daily when needed. Hopefully things would be fine soon.
Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
