Hi,
Fungal/yeast infection due to tight fitting clothes resulting in sweating & lac of ventilation to the part/ allergy to the material of undergarments,cosmetics/ shaving with blade -mostly cause such embarrassing problem.To get rid of it-
- dry the area after bathing/washing,
- wear loose fitting cotton under wear,
-Avoid cosmetics which may cause allergy,
- apply ice pack to the area,
- consult a doctor & get suitable ointment to relieve the infection.
Thanks
