Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I saw the attached picture.

Following is my reply

1. This appears to be fungal infection of perineum with acute bacterial infection superimposed.

2. You need to get antifungal ointment prescribed and apply it over the itching infected area.

3. You also need to start broad specttum antibiotics. Get them prescribed.

4. Apart from this you need to visit STD clinic for testing.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
