This can happen due to various reasons such as lack of moisture, friction, skin conditions, or infections. To treat this problem, you can use a moisturizing cream like Eucerin Aquaphor Healing Ointment. Apply a thin layer of the ointment on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can also use an antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra Antifungal Cream if there is any suspicion of a fungal infection. Apply the antifungal cream as directed on the packaging. Remember to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing.

I'm curious about Finax 1mg Tablet for hair loss. I'm worried about the side effects like decreased libido, decreased semen volume, and impotence.
