Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the image.

I have reviewed it and this area of redness is not suggestive of any disease. To me, I will recommend that you stop applying any products to this area because they will only cause further irritation and will not prove helpful. When all is stopped, adopt a wait and see attitude and it is my belief that this will resolve spontaneously over time if no more products are being applied to it.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and keep me posted with the progress upon discontinuing all products being applied!
