Have you eaten some citrus fruit before touching yourself and not washed your hands between? It's that.
Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a pretty common fungal infection of the groin and upper thighs. Jock itch is also sometimes called crack fungus, crotch itch, bag rot or crotch rot, dhobi itch (after Indian washermen). It is a common fungal infection that affects the skin of your inner thighs, buttocks and genitals. Men and women encounter the disease worldwide, although it is seen more often in the humid tropics. The rash may affect only your groin, but it may spread to include your inner thighs, genitals, and areas around your anus, rectum, or Lesions caused by jock itch can extend from the crease between the inner thigh and pelvis, over the adjacent upper inner thigh, and into the anal area. Jock itch occurs almost exclusively in adult men. It can sometimes accompany athlete's foot and ringworm. The fungus that causes jock itch thrives in warm, moist areas. As it grows, it spreads out in a circle, leaving normal-looking skin in the middle. This makes it look like a ring. At the edge of the ring, the skin is lifted up by the irritation and looks red and scaly. Many people with tinea cruris also have athlete's foot. Athlete's foot is called tinea pedis.
Jock itch gets its name because it is common in people who sweat a lot, like athletes. The medical name for all of these types of fungal infections is a tinea infection, and the medical name for jock itch is tinea cruris (pronounced: tih -nee-uh krur -us). It also often occurs in people who are overweight, but anyone can get the infection. Jock itch may be contagious. Some kinds of fungi live on damp surfaces, like the floors in public showers or locker rooms. You can easily pick up a fungus there. It can be passed from one person to the next by direct skin-to-skin contact or contact with unwashed clothing. Jock itch usually stays around the creases in the upper thigh and does not involve the scrotum. Symptoms of these infections can vary depending on where they are on the body. The most common etiologic agents for tinea cruris include Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum ; less commonly Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton verrucosum are involved. The source of the fungus is usually the soil, an animal (usually a cat, dog, or rodent), or most often, another person. Staying in a bathing suit greatly increases your chances of acquiring Jock Itch.
Causes of Jock itch
The common causes and risk factor's of Jock itch include the following:
Jock itch is caused by fungi called dermatophytes. These microscopic organisms are normal inhabitants of your skin, and stay in check as long as your skin is clean and dry.
People taking broad-spectrum antibiotics, with weakened immune systems, or who have diabetes are more at risk to develop the rash.
Wearing tight clothes or athletic supporters can aggravate the problem further.
Lichen simplex chronicus.
Eczema.
Jock itch may spread to the anus, causing anal itching and discomfort.
Chemical irritation.
Symptoms of Jock itch
Some sign and symptoms related to Jock itch are as follows:
A circular, red, raised rash with elevated edges.
Itching and redness in your groin, including your genitals, inner thighs, buttocks and anal area.
Flaking, peeling or cracking skin in your groin.
Abnormally dark or light skin.
You may have other fungal skin rashes such as athlete's foot or ringworm on other body parts.
In long-standing infections, the rash becomes less itchy and less red, and the plaques may fuse together.
Treatment of Jock itch
Here is list of the methods for treating Jock itch:
Jock itch is treated with one of two types of antifungal medications - azoles or allylamines.
For a mild case of jock itch, your doctor may suggest first using an over-the-counter antifungal ointment, lotion, powder or spray.
Keep the skin clean and dry.
Apply topical over-the-counter antifungal or drying powders, such as those that contain miconazole, clotrimazole, or tolnaftate.
Wash and then dry the area using a clean towel.
Tolnaftate (Tinactin, Aftate) and undecylenate (Cruex, Desenex) are well-known, effective medications.
Haloprogin (Halotex) - Agent for use in the treatment of tinea cruris.

Really?.... why not just do it normally? I'm the same age and know that doing it with hand lotion is stupid
Hi I'm 16 and I have the save on Robles I'm scared and I don't know what to do
It's probably because you either sweat in that area or because your underwear are bugging you
I'm almost 13 and have it I've not had sexaul relationships so no clue
It can't be that. I'm 14 and I've masturbated for quite some time and only recently has this happened to me
I had similar symptoms and I found something that helped me.
Several years ago my scrotum started going through a cycle of irritating symptoms. It has been under control for about 6 months, so I might get the order of the symptoms slightly wrong, but they were something like this:
First, I noticed that my "parts" had a strange smell. It wasn't terrible, but it didn't seem normal or healthy. This got me washing more, and more thoroughly. Then, the skin irritation cycle started. First it would start to turn red, and itch like crazy. Sometimes it also had a bad burning sensation. Then it would crack, and sometimes get some red, raw spots from scratching. Next, the cracks and raw spots would kind of crust over, and the skin would mildly itch. I thought this small itch was the skin healing, but then it would flake or peel all over (sometimes it felt like tiny bugs were crawling on my scrotum, which was scary, but eventually I figured out this was the top layer of skin drying out (or something) when it was about to flake and peel). After the skin peeled off, the new skin seemed pretty healthy, and I would think that the problem was finally over. I would keep washing carefully, try not to scratch at all, wear looser underwear for ventilation, and I even got a pad for my leather work chair because it was making me sweat. Even after making all of these changes my whole scrotum would soon start to turn red and itch, and then the burning would return.
I tried severeal itch relief creams. They didn't do very much. Then I tried all of the different over-the-counter jock itch products I could find. None of them did anything for me at all. When I got desperate, I started searching online and discovered that lots of guys were suffering from this, sometimes for years at a time. One common theme was that they felt that even their doctors couldn't give them anything that would take care of it.
After a while I started looking at people who had tried home remedies. For some reason (I don't have the link any more) one stood out to me. It might even have been a one sentence entry in a forum that basically said: Use vinegar. My family uses vinegar to treat sunburn, so this did not seem as strange to me as it might to others. To make a long story short, I was so desperate to find relief that I tried it.
I put some white vinegar in a little jar that I kept on my bathroom sink. I would take one of my wife's little, cotton makeup remover pads (like a flat cotton ball), dip it in the vinegar, and swab it on my scrotum. After use, I immediately disposed of each one.
I have to be honest, the first few times it hurt. It hurt a lot. It was okay on most of my scrotum, but if there was even the smallest sore, it burned like a hot poker. While I think most people would't try that a second time, I was so desperate that I took the attitude of "Die you vile disease, DIE!" and endured the pain. I even found that if you immediately swab a second time, the pain is much less. I think the nerves can't react so strongly twice in a row.
I didn't have anything else to go by, so I decided to follow the directions that some of the jock itch medications had, use twice per day, every day. I would apply it after my morning shower, and then again before going to bed.
Starting on the second day, the sores were starting to dry up, and applying it was a bit less painful. For the most part, it was just cool and soothing, except for any rash areas where it still stung. Within a few days, I could tell there was a change taking place. The odd smell was decreasing, and the severe itching was going away.
I can't remember if there was any more peeling. All I know is that the cycle was broken, and soon my scrotum healed up for good. Even the itching went away. This has been such a great relief!
It has been about 4-6 months since my symptoms cleared up, and I have a few final observations.
1) I've seen vinegar mentioned for other skin applications, and some of them recommended diluting it with water. I've seen various recommendations up to using 50% water. Vinegar is very acidic. Maybe it would work just as well when diluted a bit with water, and perhaps this would reduce the pain factor when it gets on open sores.
2) My jar was like a mini Mason jar, and the top actually started to rust shut. Vinegar is really nasty stuff. Maybe a plastic container would have been better, or a glass jar with a plastic cap. I used a small jar so I could dump the old vinegar now and then to keep it clean (not that I think anything could actually live in that stuff).
3) In the last few weeks, I felt something like "that itch" again. No smell, but the itch, a small rash patch, and a little bit of flaking. A few days ago I brought out the vinegar for another round, and the irritation is just about gone again. I don't know where this comes from (I don't have any physical contact aside from my wife); but it seems to start if I allow myself to sweat down there without having a shower right away.
I want to be clear, I have no medical training or knowledge. This isn't advice. It is just an account of something I tried.

Any help
I had the flaky skin for a while. I then had to go into hospital for an unrelated surgery and they stabbed me for MRSA and it came back positive. They supplied me with an anti-microbial shower gel called Octenisan. It cleared up the flaky skin on my scrotum in just a few days. I'm not saying it's MRSA necessarily but the gel worked for both problems. It has recently come back so I've just ordered a large bottle of it from Amazon. I'm going to make sure I boil wash all my sheets, towels, underwear etc to remove any trace.
That was supposed to say SWABBED not STABBED! Don't panic!
