Specializes in General Practice

Itching Groin: Hi you may; very well have a common "jock itch' situation where you have a fungal infection of the groin. You do not need to suffer. But, if simple over the counter anti-fungals are not helping then please get in to see your pediatrician soon. You have nothing to fear.
