Brief Answer:
Probably a yeast infection, follow the advice below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a yeast infection.
You can send a photo to help me confirm the diagnosis.
Some advice that I can give to you are:
Wash with mild soap and dry frequently the area.
Use antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole cream for local application. It is an over the counter medication.
If the topical medication is not effective you should take oral antifungal medication .
I would recommend Fluconazole (Diflucan).
It is a prescription medication so you should consult your doctor before using it.
It may take 3 days for your symptoms to improve and up to 7 days for the rash to disappear.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further
