What Causes Rash At The Top Of Butt Crack?

Hi I am trying to find out what is this rash on my bottom. Located at the top of my butt crack. And it is reddish small cluster of blistering bumps with black spots in the middle of the bumps. Its been a week and now they are coming to somewhat of a head and the black spots are more exposed. I have a itchy and started burn. But I think that may be from me scratching at it and opening the blisters to soars. I wanted to attach a hd pic of the rash for identification.

Hi,

You might be suffering from Intertrigo. It is a fungal infection of folds where friction commonly occurs. Many a times it is also superimposed by bacterial infection which include the hair follicle. The combination of antifungal and antibacterial is needed to treat the situation.

Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact again.
