Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Fungal infection also can cause redness and dots. You can apply anti fungal ointments or creams like Miconazole or Terbinafine for this. Use this for 7 to 10 days. If you stop after short duration then return of infection is possible. Use non allergic soaps like cetaphil for washing. Also wear cotton undergarments.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
