Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a skin infection. I suggest to clean the area with hydrogen peroxide.
I also suggest to cover it with Neosporin cream which is an antibiotic cream. I recommend to maintain a good hygiene and wear loose clothes to avoid sweating.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
