What Causes Itchy Rash On Thighs And Between The Testicles?
My boyfriend was itchy between his balls and his inner thigh. It has now turned into a raw rash. Red and a few bumps on the thigh. I think it s fungal. What can I get for him to make it go away. He has had athletes foot before. He plays rugby as well and is a little hairy down there.

hi dear,
itchy between thigh and testicles and also rash is may be due to fungal infection as it is the most common site where sweating accumulates and leads to secondary infection.
is there itching associated with it?
and also you told that he is athlete so he has more perspiration so chances of infection are high.
first maintain hygiene of the part and keep it clear.
and apply any anti fungal cream and if associated any systematic infection took oral medication also.
consult skin specialist for detail
