Red Patch, Itchy And Painful Near To Public Area On Thigh. Any Cream To Reduce Discomfort And Redness?

The area on thigh very close to pubic area and genitals has a red patch which is itchy a little bit and painful whilst walking or changing position when sitting. It's been for 2 days so far but never happened in the last 2 years. It has happened before like 2-3 years ago but because of tight underwear. Are there any creams or something else to reduce the redness and discomfort?

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to excess perspiration and tight under wear giving rise to constant friction causing this problem.
Wear cotton loose under wear.
Avoid using under wear during night.
Keep local part dry, clean and airy.
Apply some anti-fungal talk on local part.
Ok and take care.
