I've been having this really uncomfortable burning sensation and some itching rashes around my inner thighs and groin area. It actually feels like the skin there has gotten thinner and it's kind of sticking together. What could be causing this and what should I do about it?

I'm dealing with a cut mark on my left hand that happened back in January 2016. I didn't get any treatment for it at that time. Now, the wound mark has become thick, and I'm experiencing pain and itching there. Even a light touch is painful. Could you advise me on what to do?
