Please don't worry, it is a fungal infection. Sometimes these lesions can develop pus as well.
There is good treatment available in the form of antifungals, both orally as well as topically which will give you relief from the symptoms in 2-3 weeks.
For a prescription, you can consult me online and I will guide you. Alternately, you can visit your nearest dermatologist for treatment.
Next Steps
Consult a certified dermatologist.
