Intertrigo: Could be simple chaffing, yeast, or fungus. Many other, less common, conditions. Are you very heavy? Diabetic? Travel or prolonged sitting? Sports or heavy work? Rough or tight clothing? A dermatologist can identify ; treat this. Meanwhile you can get Miconazole or Clotrimazole cream otc for less than $10. Rub in small amt at least 2x a day. Not dangerous even if you accidently brush your teeth wi.

Maybe Eczema: Eczema or contact dermatitis. If the spots are where some article of clothing rubs then that could be the cause. If not, then use Hydrocortisone 1% cream three times a day on the dry spots as needed. If you moisturize with a lotion twice a day all over, then advance to a cream twice a day or an ointment like, vaseline or aquaphor. That is just the way eczema acts.
