you are suffering from intertrigo.
it is commonly fungal in etiology.
keep the area very dry.wash with ketokonazole soap and apply onabet cream twice daily.
also use candid/miconazole powder to avoid sweat.
you might need a course of oral antifungals like itraconazole and terbinafine.
wear loose fitting cotton clothes to keep sweating and moisture away .
Hope this helps
