Deep breath: Intertrigo is a fancy name for a rash that shows up between the folds of skin. It is a very common skin rash that can crop up throughout life. Maybe its fungus..your a young guy...are producing a lot of hormones and maybe are sweating a lot. Try to keep yourself dry, and clean. Change your underwear a couple times a day. You may try some jock itch spray. Bottom line..no big deal.

So, modifying and eliminating the unfavorable conditions by weight loss, heightened topical hygiene with more dryness and aeration, judicious use of antifungal cream with steroid. More?
