Hello,
This might be due to fungal infections you and your wife encountered probably during sex. However, I still suggest you to visit your doctor for detailed local examination to rule out other possibilities as well like other bacterial infections. Meanwhile, keep yourself clean and dry. Abstain from sexual activities till diagnosis and treatment.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
