Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic
The description of the rash does not fit into any STI. So do not worry.
It could be intertrigo or fungal infection. Please upload a photograph so that I can assess better. You have an option to do that on the right side of the query page.
Keep the area dry. Do not clean the area excessively with soap and water or dettol.
Hope this helped.
Take care
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
