Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
From your description it could be lichen, eczema, fungal, or parasitic infection. Is there any rash, swelling, vaginal or anal discharge etc?
Redness inside naval could be some inflammation/infection on the outer side (skin) only.
I will suggest the following:
- a strong steroidal cream...requires prescription
- Miconazole cream, available over the counter
- Tab Albendazole 400 mg stat for worms. Requires in prescription in some countries.
- If the above have not helped, then please go for biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
