Suggest Treatment For Itchy And Burning Rash On The Upper Thigh

I have a friend I was speaking with yesterday that has a rash on her inner, upper thigh where the skin folds to the genital region. She says it itches and burns, as well as weeps clear fluid. The boarders are uneven and I believe there are pustules within the red rash itself. I didn t see the rash myself, but told her that I would look into it to see if I could find any information that may help. She is over-weight and spends allot of time in bed due to many significant health problems. I have looked into yeast infections and feel that may be exactly the problem. I am just wondering if there is something more likely or possible?
