What Causes Rashes Above Penis Area?

I seem to have redish almost rash looking skin on my crotch, just above the penis area. It is not bumpy and does not itch whatsoever. It seems to ger redder at certain times, and much less so (almost dissapears) during others. Any idea what this could be, how it is caused and how to cure it in the future? I am 30 years old male and in good shape.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It could be an eczematous rash. I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected area twice daily for 10 days.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
