It's a heat rash. It's from heat and friction.

I seriously doubt its an STD,these symptoms are nearly always confined to the genital tract and genital areas.
According to what u have described,it sounds like a bacterial/fungal infection ,it may not be due to friction alone cuz u wont feel itching n burning,only u would have felt the skin scaly thats all.
My verdict is that u may be suffering from an infection,maybe due to improper toilet habits,please rub in vaseline or any othet petroluem jelly based product to keep the skin supple until u pay a visit to a dermatologist,which u should at the earliest.
Dont go in for any over the counter chemical concoctions of creams n gels,it may worsen yr condition,and plz try to keep yr hand away from itching,an aspirin may also help by curbing the infection to some extent.
I wish ya a speedy recovery,infections heal quicky so dont ya worry pal!

It could just be an allergy to something. I get red welts appearing on my skin if I've been wearing clothing that digs in / is too tight. If you have antihistamine in the house take that to help with the itching and stick to wearing cotton clothes to help the skin breathe. A lukewarm shower or a bath might also help soothe the skin and apply a thin coating of antiseptic cream such as savlon afterwards.

Hiya, dont worry its a friction rash, were you sweaty yesterday?? The burning sounds like the salt in the sweat was burning you and now its dry its itching because its healing! Try dabbing talc on the area to absorb sweat and it shouldnt give you any more grief!! Hope I have helped!! Merry Christamas to you and yours from me and mine xxx

If you are a bender it could be STD, otherwise it sounds like nappy rash.

Sounds like a fat rash to me. Just put A&D ointment on it before you go to bed and it will go away.

Have you had chicken pox? Might be related to that.
