Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due fungal infection or dryness. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Using ointments with combination of antifungal like miconazole and corticosteroid like flucinolone for local application will be helpful. Use loose cotton underwear. Avoid underwear while sleeping.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
