Hello,

It could be a fungal infection. As a first line manager, you can apply topical antifungal like Clotrimazole after cleaning with soap and water. If symptoms persist, better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
