Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Genital herpes is one of the more common reasons for genital rash. The other potential causes are: (1) allergic rash- if there is any allergy to soaps/creams/detergents
(2)fungal rash-
both of these would normally be associated with itching in most persons.
A blood test can determine if you have genital herpes, you can ask your doctor about the possibility of having this done.
The rash on your feet is not likely related.
I hope this helps
