Hi,

It may be fungal infection.... tinea corporis and tiinea cruris .Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream. Take antifungal tablets like tab ketoconazole 200 daily with antihistaminics like cetirizine 10 mg daily.

Improve hygiene and immunity. Keep the skin dry. Avoid soap bath. You may use dettol liq for bath.

Hope this helps.
