There are some over the counter yeast infection medications that you can try, if the infection is in a skin fold. If the infection is around your genitals, I would suggest talking to your doctor about appropriate medication, as the skin there can be very sensitive to irritants.

When men experience yeast infections, such as "athlete's foot" or intertriginous yeast infections of the skin, common treatments include clotrimazole (e.g. Lotrimin) or tolnaftate (e.g. Tinactin), for instance. For certain types of yeast infections (e.g. oral thrush), physicians may prescribe medications such as Nystatin or others.

The above answer is correct but it is also applicable to women who are suffering from yeast infection. The treatment is similar to both, men and women.
