Hello Lybrate User,
Tinea cruris or itching in a groin is a fungal infection of the skin. It belongs to a group of fungal skin infections called tinea. These microscopic fungi naturally live on the skin as well as on the hair and nails. They?re typically harmless, but they can multiply quickly and cause infections when they?re allowed to thrive in warm, moist areas. This is why jock itch usually develops in the skin around the groin, inner thighs, and buttocks. Tinea cruris is most common in men and adolescent boys. The infection causes a rash that often itches or burns. The affected areas can also be red, flaky, or scaly.
