Hi guest, I have the same problem. I don't really know the answer to the rash, but I know it is caused by sweat and heat. I have rash on my balls and inner side of legs. When I touch it, I noticed that it is sweaty. So I take a shower regularly and firmly wash the infected areas, and after the shower firmly dry the red areas. I then clean it with Savlon and water. Do not use Savlon directly, it will burn as hell. Then I dry it again and pour on Johnsons baby powder to keep the red areas sooth and dry. What clothing concerns, wear loose clothing, clothing that is not tight. Because the tightness and heat, causes sweat. This wont go away overnight, its something you must do regularly. Goodluck with your sore red rash, lets hope we can beat this!

Most hydrocortisone contains rubbing alcohol. It helps dry skin out but irritates It as well. I have the same thing going on as the poster and can't handle using anymore anti fungal because it burns and I can't sleep(I sweat a lot at work) but this is my first run into jock itch. Don't be afraid of scaling skin. Your skin naturally flakes, but anti fungal expodites the process. Just use baby lotion, it's formulated for sensitive skin and therefore doesn't burn too bad.

I currently have all the same symptoms I'm reading of on this page. Started with a rarely occurring, but intense itch, or burning(felt like I had been bit by ants on the scrotum. I tried to ignore it, but I scratched it to the point where it started to hurt.
A few days passed and the red bumps began to show. All felt the same, but now k had some sweet new redness to deal with as well
The last symptom was the leathery scrotom. It got so bad, I could see what appeared as cracks between the skin. It hurt to walk. I was unable to consistently walk for more than 4-6 hours at work until the pain became unbearable
It's at its worst now, but after reading this page, i am going to try some
Kind of anti fungal cream. Hopefully that will do the trick that neither body powder or moisturizing creams seemed to be able to help with
I work construction, 6 days a week, in Florida. It's hot, and humid, so I'm pretty positive sweat is the cause of this. I don't wear boxers, I wear long athletic briefs that don't cause any problems on their own. I had these same symptoms a year ago, but it resolved itself before I became worriedm

Alright so I read this post while I was havignon the simptoms. Didn't have the leathery sack thing but no doubt of I'd have left it thAts where I would be now. I had the's lumps either side of my sack that looked like sores, uncontrollable itch on my sack and thighs and when I looked at my sack it looked like dry skin but moist. And wheb I say uncontrollable itch I mean I need to get this seen to by a doctor itch. However as I'm late 20's and have work it wasn't feasible so I has a look here and saw that all of you are suffering the same fate. So 1 week on and I'm back to normal. No redness, itchiness and no sores oh and when lay in bed and lifted my leg up it would sting. So how did I fix it you ask? Ok so every night for a week I had a warm not burn ur balls off hot bath with nothing added to the water just warm water and lay there for at least 20 minutes. Yes I did wash my pits with shower gel but I was careful to do this at the end of the bath. Also here in the UK there is a cream for women's thrush/fungal infections it's called Canistan Cream which I used to put onto my thighs and sack and don't be stingy because although the bath helped the cream instantly got rid of the itch. I had my bath at night put the cream on and then RE applied the cream in the morning before work. Repeated the next lot of night and a week later no more itching etc oh and there was also a bit of a pong which has now gone too. Hope this helps someone else. Good luck! Mine started out with some kind of sweat rash but I ignored it and it got way worse so a word of warning never ignore an itch!!!

Ahh yes...I am a construction worker in NYC & we get this condition regularly during the hotter months. We call it RIPPING RED, basically we have to gently cleanse the area at least once a day if you dont have time or means to clean up twice, then slap on any antifungal cream, store brand fine.. powder & the right underwear are the only way to keep Ripping Red off our balls & thighs, using them nasty Port o poties probably dont help either..anyway now you all know whats its called & what to do about it...no doctor necessary... now go kick Ripping Red's ass guys!

I had this once while exploring and pulling a sledge in Antarctica. We had no creams so exposed the parts to sunlight when we could; fixed it.
