Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a fungal infection that affects the skin of your genitals, inner thighs and buttocks. Jock itch causes an itchy, red, often ring-shaped rash in these warm, moist areas of your body. It can easily be managed by selfcare. Keep the area as dry as possible by always using a clean towel after showering or swimming. Avoid sharing towels. Try to avoid wearing tight-fitting clothing and undergarments. Wash athletic supporters as often as possible. Change clothes and undergarments daily. Treat any other fungal infections you may have, such as athlete?s foot, because they?re similar and can lead to reinfection through contact. Don't share your clothes and towels with others. You can also try applying tea tree oil, Aloevera cream or apple cidar vinegar to the affected region. Try to avoid foods high in sugar and carbohydrates. Also avoid alcohol.
