I was caught in the rain yesterday and got soaked from head to toe. Today, I've noticed a red rash around my butt cheek. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be from staying in wet clothes too long, and what would be the best way to treat it?

I'm having this really uncomfortable itching problem under my testicles for over ten days now. It seems to get really bad during a bath when I wash them with soap. The itching is so intense that the skin becomes really red, and there's muscle pain too. I've tried using Fore Derm ointment and Absorb dusting powder, but nothing's helping. What should I do?
