What Causes Blotchy Redness In Pubic Area?

Hello, What might be the cause of blotchy redness in the pubic area? My skin appears to be dry in the spots that are red. The redness is located only on the pubic area directly above my penis, but not on my stomach. It normally does not itch, however, sometimes it does during/after exercise. Also, I have some similar blotchy redness in the middle of my chest. It does not itch at all and doesn t look dry. Not sure if this related at all. Thanks.

Hi,

Possible causes for blotchy redness in pubic area may be due to Jock itch or heat rash or yeast infection or razor bumps or folliculitis or herpes simplex infection, etc.

Use moisturizer cream locally, use tablet Atarax 25 twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
