Hello and welcome to HCM,

I read your query and understood your concern.

It seems like you have intertrigol infection, inflammation due to skin to skin friction ( reason for moist skin and sticky discharge ) as well as secondary infection / folliculitis ( the reason for pimple like lumps ).

Apply topical antibiotics combination like mupirocin / fusidic acid with steroid. keep the area dry. Wear light cotton undergarments.

Also take oral fluconazole 150 mg twice weekly to rule out fungal cause of intertrigo.

Hope I helped
