A barrier cream is a good option. Pat it on do not rub it on and with this product truly "less is more" It is difficult to remove so the more you slather it on the more difficult it is to get it off.
Also make sure the area is really cleaned and dry.
In some areas fungal infections are very probable. ("Jock Itch" or athletes foot are common and love conditions that are warm and moist) You can try an OTC (over the counter) product.
I would try the fungal treatments first before the barrier cream. If it is a fungal you do not want to seal that under a layer of cream.
Also if it is fungal sometimes keeping the area open to dry and air out works well. Can be a problem with incontinence. But for legs shorts, skirts or even no outer clothing just the pull up brief will give the area a chance to air.
