Suggest Treatment For Raised Scaly Area That Is Bleeding Upon Scratching

Intertrigo
Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome
I appreciate your concern
Based on the history that you described, it appears you eroded an area due to excessive scratching. Perhaps it was a vascular area and a vessel was eroded, into. Clean the area with diluted povidone solution and apply Neosporin or polyfax like topical antibiotics. Till the area is bleeding, apply firm pressure with a clean gauze piece or cotton swab. For the intertrigo (yeast infection), Zinc oxide along with clotrimazole would help resolve it.
Wishing you best of health
Thanks
