[|Human|] Hi, I have 2 rings on my groin where the scrotum touches the leg, on the leg section. These are red on the outside and a yellowish/brown on the inside, and are about 1cm in diameter. My scrotum in the area that touches these rings is red and itchy. Its been there for about 5 days now and isnt disappearing, what could be the cause and solution?
[|AI|]  Hall, The fungus that most commonly causes JOCK ITCH is called TRICHOPHYTON QUORUM.  The rash of jock itch starts in the groin fold usually on both sides. If the rash advances, it usually advances down the inner thigh. The advancing edge is redder and more raised than areas that have been infected longer. The skin with in the border turns a reddish-brown and loses much of its scale.  Jock itch caused by T. Rubrum does not involve the scrotum or penis. If those areas involved, the most likely agent is Candida albicans, the same type of yeast that causes vaginal yeast infections. 1. Wear loose fitting clothing made of cotton or synthetic materials designed to wick moisture away from the surface.2. Avoid sharing clothing and towels or wash cloths.3. Allow the groin to Chat Doctor. 4. Antifungal powders or sprays may be used once a day to prevent infection.
