I've had this for a few months now; I heard it was something like jock.. something? Basically on the joint of my left leg, a few centimetres away from my bush, I have a circle of bumps.. much like mosquito bites. inside that circle, it's red sometimes silvery coloured skin. It almost looks like a birth mark, but it's only come recently. At first, it was only itchy every night. Then, slowly, after the few months, it's itchy about 3 times a day, and EXTREMELY itchy. It then becomes slightly sore after its finished being itchy. I don't think it's gotten bigger, but maybe just a tiny bit. So; What do you think it is? Is it serious? What do i need to do to get rid of it?

Is this serious?

First thing: See a doctor. They'll likely refer to you a dermatologist if they can't treat it.

Sounds like jock itch (yeast infection). Go to the pharmacy and find some jock itch powder or creme. If it doesn't help, then you might want to consult a doctor.

I don't need jock itch powder/creme by prescription? thats cool. I also wanna know if the thing will go away without getting it treated..

I don't need jock itch powder/creme by prescription?Correct. It's on the shelf.> if the thing will go away without getting it treatedMaybe, maybe not, but why suffer? The treatment is cheap and simple. If it turns out to have been something else, you won't have lost much. Then it would be time to see the doctor.
