Why Is My Buttock Crack White And Peeling?

I had a pilidonal cyst removed a couple of years ago. But now my intergluteal cleft itches, and when I pull my buttocks apart my crack or the cleft is white and sometimes peels what is this. I am afraid to ask my personal Dr about it and it has become a sexual frustration for me because my boyfriend can see it if we are having sex. What is this?
