Brief Answer:
It can be fungal infection or irritation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to fungal infection or irritation to chemicals from soaps you use to wash. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful. Do you have any history of risky unprotected intercourse recently?

For such condition i would recommend using ointments or creams with combination of antifungal like miconazole and corticosteroid like hydrocortisone for local application. This is available as over the counter in brands like daktarin.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
