Sounds like it might be jock itch aka a yeast infection. Why not get some cream for it at your local drug store or walmart and see if this doesn't help.

You get a yeast infection when the yeast aka candidia bacteria overgrows. Yeast thrives in a warm moist enviroment and your perineal area is just such a place. Yeast infection cream be if for vaginal yeast, jock itch or athletes foot is all the same. Just pick some up at your store and use it. There is no other way to really get rid of a yeast infection without using an antifungal cream or powder or medication etc.
