The symptoms what you have mentioned in your history are suggestive of fungal infection which is most likely in groin region. For this you can take some antibiotics after an expert opinion with some anti allergic like Avil or cetrizine 8-12 hourly for itching and redness. You can use some anti fungal drugs like candid-b powder or keto-conazole cream for local application.
