What Do Red Rashes Between The Thighs And Scrotum Indicate?

Hi - I have red patches of skin between my thighs and scrotum and along my butt crack. My doctor believes it s psoriasis because I have it on other parts of my body. It develops a white paste after a day and in wondering if this is excess skin sniffing or if it s a sign of intertrigo?

If that rash is itchy and erythematous patch like then likely to be tenia cruris or intertrigo as you called.but if that is whitish and you have history of psoriasis it's seems to me that you might have psoriatic rash.
