Softened, moist skin in a certain area

Softened, moist skin in a certain area refers to skin that becomes unusually soft and damp. This condition often results from prolonged exposure to moisture, such as sweat, urine, or other fluids, which can break down the skin’s outer layer. This weakened skin is more susceptible to damage and infection, particularly in areas subjected to persistent pressure or friction.
