Hi,

It could be intertrigo which is inflammation of the body folds. I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected area twice daily for 10 days.

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

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
