General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely due to fungal infection. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful in identifying. In such case i would recommend using ointments with combination of antifungal like miconazole antibacterial like neomycin and corticosteroid like betamethasone for local application. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use saline or warm water.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
