The symptoms you had mentioned are mostly suggestive of fungal infection for which you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or doxycycline after an expert opinion along with avil or cetrizine for itching. You can use Vaseline and betnovate-c or clobit-gm cream for local application. If the problem is persistent you can take some steroids as suggested by your doctor.
