Thank you for query.it may be due to fungal infection or irritant contact dermatitis .it is not clear about the morphology.If fungal needs antifungal creams like clotrimazole.if you suspect irritant dermatitis stop the creams,bodywash etc use warm water to clean area use calamine lotion.take antihistamines like cetrizine if itching.Consult dermatologist if does not subside.Else get back to us directly.Dr Bharatesh D Basti Dermatologist
