hi...thanks for writing here.Area inside of legs near pelvic area is known as a intertriginous area.This area is always moist along with constant rubbing,so there is always chance of developing fungal infections.Keep area as dry as possible,use loose undergarments use ,antifungal powders .Baking soda will irritate the skin and do not apply it.Get your blood sugar done,and still problem persists then consult dermatologist.
