Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed a superficial fungal infection.
I treat such cases with a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for a month.
For dry skin you can use liquid paraffin or coconut oil to be applied twice daily.
This should help you.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thanks
