Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based on your description, it appears that you could be having fungal (yeast) infection around the genital area.
Kindly do the following to overcome the symptoms.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Apply antifungal medication Sertaconazole cream or dusting powder over the region twice daily.
3. Do not put tight clothes and undergarments over the region till the symptoms subside completely.
Maintain good personal hygiene. Gradually, your symptoms should subside.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
