Brief Answer:
Fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have reviewed your query and viewed the image.
I can see a dry, red patch of skin in this image. You seem to have a fungal infection.
I suggest you to take an oral antifungal e.g either Terbinafine 250mg (Tab. Zimig) Or Itraconazole 100mg (Cap Sporonox), once a day for 2 -4 weeks. In addition I suggest you to use a topical antifungal e.g either Luliconazole 1% cream (Lulifin cream) or Amorolfine 0.025% cream (Fungicros cream), twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Fungal infection is usually itchy, therefore you may also take an oral antihistamine e.g cetrizine 10mg tablet once a day for a few days for symptomatic relief from itching. These are all prescription medications and I advice you to kindly talk to your local practitioner for a prescription of the same.

Hope I have answered your query.
