Dermatologist,  's  Response
hi 
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum 
You seem to have developed a fungal infection of the natal cleft region, which can be either tinea infection or candidiasis.
You should try to keep the groin region clean and dry .
Do not apply any kind of oils or moisturizing creams over the groin region .
Wear cotton undergarments inorder to reduce sweating. 
You need to use an antifungal agent like  Clotrimazole gel over the affected area twice a day. 
Also you might need to take oral antifungals like fluconazole .
And to relieve the itching, take oral antihistamines . 

Hope it helps,
