Hi,
The description that you are giving is more or less looks like a fungal infection, please keep the area as dry as possible, and you can apply an ointment like candid derma. Usually, low immunity status like diabetes which is the most common one tends to cause this.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
