Brief Answer:
Need more detail

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

understand your concern. An itchy rash on the genitalia is usually a sign of an STD.
How long have you had it for? Have you been having unprotected sex? What does the rash look like?
I advise you get tested for STD as soon as possible and start the appropriate treatment. In the mean time, it is best to refrain from intercourse and notify your partner about the possibility of an infection.
I'd be happy to answer any further questions you might have.
Wishing your good health and all the best.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
