General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to irritation or fungal infection. Soaps or irritants you use to wash can irritate this area. So avoid such irritants and instead you can use warm water or saline for this. Using intimate wash is also good. Applying antifungal creams like clotrimazole is helpful also. It is available as over the counter.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
