Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

The history and symptoms suggests me that you are having some fungal infection which is causing all these tedious problems.

The fungus are known to affect this region, because of the hygiene and the the presence of the hair which will favors the multiplication of this fungus which were the normal commensals of this region and produces these symptoms.

For your symptoms I would suggest you to follow.

1. Keep this area clean and dry by applying the neosporin powder over the affected area.
2..Apply anti fungal cream over the affected area.
3. Sinfgle dose of Tab Diflucan, 150 mg, will helps you to over come this symptoms.
4. Oral Antihistamines will reduce the severity of itching.
Thank You.
