What Does A Rash In The Groin Area Indicate?
Hi so I have a rash in the crease between my thighs and vagina and it s only really there it s splotchy and doesn t hurt or itch with a few bumps and a couple white heads that might be from razor burn or ingrown hair. I m kinda worried could it be an std? I also work out every day and was wondering if it could be like chafing or something?

Hi,
The symptoms are more consistent with a fungal infection like tinea.
As a first line management, you can apply topical an antifungal like clotrimazole for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
