Hi,

It may be intertrigo most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply antibiotic cream like fusidine acid cream on the fissure in the groin areas till the healing. Then antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream may be applied. Take antihistaminics,antibiotic and antifungal tablets after consulting the dermatologist. Keep the area dry. Take Sitz bath in Dettol mixed water. Improve hygiene and immunity.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel, Dermatologist
