Nothing to worry about it.

Dear you may be suffering from scrotal dermatitis, it is due to allergic reaction to soap, body lotion or shaving cream. It may be due to tight clothing cause sweating and infection and rash. It will subside on its own.

Just apply derma dew cream and avoid allergen
Tab. Cetrizine twice a day will help.

If symptoms not improved consult a dermatologist.
