Brief Answer:
Possible rash of infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I can certainly understand your concern

I have worked through your attached query and images in detail

This looks like a fungal infection.

It predominantly affects the moist and folded areas of the body.

A short course of oral and topical antifungal medications are required for effective symptomatic relief.

I generally prescribe oral pills of Terbinafine and Topical agents like Clotrimazole plus Betamethesone for my patients with such symptoms. Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications to you.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care,
Dr. Suresh Heijebu.
