Hi,
After reading your query I can make the possiilbty of Tinea or fungal infection. This is more common due hot humid climate or due to moisture at tlocal area.
You can apply any good anti-fungal cream containing clotrimazole or setaconazole. You can take anti-fungal tablet like fluconazole 150 mg and if itching is presnet then can take tablet loratadine.
