From the picture and history, this looks more suggestive of a fungal infection (tinea) or chronic friction-related dermatitis rather than anything serious.
Keep the area dry, avoid scratching, wear loose cotton clothing, and continue antifungal treatment regularly as prescribed because these infections can take a few weeks to improve completely.
Next Steps
Feel free to book a consultation so we can discuss the complete treatment plan in detail
Health Tips
Avoid using steroid-containing creams without medical advice.

The round, well-defined scaly patches on your belly that have been there for 45 days look like tinea corporis (ringworm) â a very common fungal skin infection. This is easily treatable with the right antifungal medication.
Next Steps
Apply an antifungal cream like luliconazole or clotrimazole twice daily for at least 4 weeks. If there is no improvement in 2-3 weeks, see a dermatologist to rule out psoriasis. Feel free to consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation.
