Hello,
It seems like times cruris but clear pictures are required for proper diagnosis. I also have to rule out history of any vaginal infection as well so treatment can be planned accordingly.
Injudicious use of topica antifungal like clotrimazole increases chances of resistance or ineffectiveness of medication in near future so please do take a medical help before you self treat

You can take online consultation. You can use clotrimazole. But detailed consultation will be better.

Have you applied any over the counter ointment on the rash? It can modify the picture of a fungal infection.
Next Steps
Start applying L-Sys cream twice a day on the patches. And take tablet Xevor 5mg for the itching at bedtime.
