Could be normal: It could be nothing, so it would be reasonable to wait and see. You might want to try some vagisil, an over the counter cream that would soothe the area. I could also be an infection. If you develop a discharge and the symptoms intensify, it's time to see you doctor.

Swimmer's Itch: There are many causes of skin rashes following swimming. Treatment depends on the cause. Swimmer's itch is a parasitic infection from exposure to contaminated freshwater & is treated with praziquantel. Seabather's eruption is a reaction to tiny jellyfish larvae in saltwater & is treated symptomatically. Reactions to irritants or allergens in water are other causes. Consult a dermatologist.

Yes: I would go to the doctor to get it checked. It may be something simple like allergy, or it could be something more serious like blepharitis, which could have effects on the cornea and your vision.

Sweating, yeast: Excessive sweating with bacterial colonization will cause itching in odor. This is more common f you are overweight or diabetic. An antibacterial soap will help. A diaper cream used thinly will absorb sweat and decrease friction.

Doctor can evaluate: A person who feels really tired has to figure out why (because normal, healthy people don't feel tired without a reason). An itch may or may not be related to tiredness. A doctor can help evaluate. In some people, fatigue and itching can happen with liver problems, kidney problems, etc... Some people get tired due to anemia, low thyroid hormone, lack of sleep, being overworked, etc...
