HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it may be due to a fungal infection.
This tends to be itchy in nature and more likely to occur in warm conditions.
Moisture is also a breeding ground for fungal infections.
The use of an anti fungal cream would help eg nizoral, miconazole, econazole, ketoconazole.
It can take two to three weeks for a fungal infection to heal.
You may need to consider adding a topical steroid cream for the first few days to help with the itching eg hydrocortisone.
I hope this helps
