Hello, you are most probably suffering from a fungal infection. Remember to wear loose cotton clothing specially when at home. Avoid hot humid climate, keep the affected area dry and avoid synthetic innerwear. Do not use any over-the-counter medication over this area as it may be containing certain ingredients which may the increase the problem. Proper oral and topical medicine for 1-2 months will completely cure you of this disease. If any other family members are affected, they must also be adequately treated to prevent recurrence, you can send me a picture of the affected area for treatment.
