Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Liver problem is rather hardly possible. Jaundice can cause itching (I suppose this is what you are thinking of) but usually it affects whole body, not genitals only. With liver problem you should also have yellowish skin, easy bleeding, easy bruising.
Your problem is rather caused by fungal infection in genital area. This area has a special, humid and warm environment which makes it prone to fungal infection. I suggest you to consult dermatologist.
In a meanwhile please try to wash it regularly, wear loose underwear.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
