Q: i have an itching problem in my private area and its been going on for years there's redness and an odor i don't know what is going on since i'm a clean person down there but its getting worse?

: Time to see pediatrician, specifically if condition is worsening. It may be as simple as a local skin irritation or a fungal infection, a focused exam and proper treatment is needed.
