Men Only! My Husband Has A Rash on..?

his groin area..very itchy and red. It's kinda of on his leg, next to his "package"..any ideas on what it is..it looks just dry to me but I don't know.I'm not a man.

Answers:
From experience, it sounds like a good old fashion jock itch. You can but sprays at the drugstore that should clear it up in a couple of days. If it gets worse, see your doctor as it could be something worse, but I doubt it..

Sounds like venereal warts
It could be a fungus, a heat rash, or just chafing. Poison ivy is another possibility, but I think it would look different if it was that. It is also possible that it's an STD. Better ask a doctor about it to be sure. Good luck!
Goldbond powder should help it feel better. He is probably sweating and his underwear or jeans are rubbing while he is working. It has happened to my husband before in hot weather.

Have him hang out in shorts or boxers all weekend and keep it very clean and dry..use the Goldbond powder.

If it does not clear up.see the doc.
My husband had something that sounds exactly like you've described. The doctor said it was a bacteria and gave him some cream to make it go away.
This happens to my husband too sometimes. It's usually not itchy though. It usually happens when he's working outside and is sweating a lot. A little bit of baby powder works wonders, before or after.
It could be the material in his underwear rubbing his skin the wrong way.
.Well it could be a bacteria and should be taken care of immediately
it might be a heat rash had one once red rash with dark boarder went to doc sent me to derma turned out to be heat rash cost 175.00 sucked to good luck ( try diaper rash ointment )
Just some kind of chafing or bacterial problem like athlete's foot
No, it's not an STD.

It's most likely "jock itch."

Go to a drug store and buy him a spray for it (there are several brands like Tinactin etc.) and make sure he puts it on twice a day. After showering, dry the area well and spray it on there real good.

It's caused by too much friction in the area, or heavy sweating, sometimes can come from poor hygiene in summer time.

I had it once and it was the result of me using spray deodorant down there. It irritated the area and turned into jock itch.

I now use baby power after showering in the groin area and have not had a problem since. I recommend telling him to use baby powder in the future to stay dry, because the most common cause of it is from sweating and the area being moist all day.
jock itch they have a creme for that also athletes foot cremes work.
is he gaining weight, when i did then my theighs were rubbing against eachother when i walked so then i got rash, it sucked, but i lost weight fast. he could wear boxers
It may be allergy. Anyway, don't guess. Have your husband go to see doctor.
