It sounds to me like "Jock itch" if you google this and find some pictures perhaps you could compare them to your rash and see if that is what you have?

If it is you can use over the counter anti-fungal Athletes foot cream for this.

Or could be any number of differant infections, bad hygiene, or a allergic reaction to what you are wearing in that area. It's best to see a doctor for sure.

I have used Canesten powder over the counter anti-fungal  untill the redness calms down then I use a deodorant sticks sold one not the roler ball ones as you want to keep it as dry as possible in the area and this has kept it away. I have sufered for 20 years but now I am free of it.
