Brief Answer:
Jock Itch

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You are experiencing itching and redness on your scrotum which is caused by a fungal infection. This is a very common problem and can be treated with over the counter antifungal powder or spray. I usually recommend using Tinactin or Lamisil to treat the problem. Use it twice a day for 1-2 weeks and your problem will be resolved

In summary
1. Jock Itch
2. Treat with tinactin or Lamisil spray

I hope I answered your question. Please contact HCM again with your health care questions and concerns
