Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful in identifying. For yeast infection i would recommend using anti fungal creams like clotrimazole for local application. But if you had unprotected sexual intercourse recently then problems like syphilis should be ruled out by consulting a dermatovenerologist. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
