Dry skin: When one overdoes bathing and depletes all the natural oils from the skin, it becomes irritated and itchy. Moderation in all things is a good guideline; and that includes bathing. Once a day is usually adequate. A good moisturizing lotion should be very helpful to relieve the rash and itch.

Family practice : It's probably the result of frequent showers causing dry / irritated skin.
