A member asked:

Red skin in groin, how to cure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a doctor: You might have jock itch which is a fungal infection of the skin in the groin area. Yes, women can get that too. But without examination, it's hard to be certain. So you should see a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.
