Thank you for bringing up this clinically common skin condition. Yet, without a direct taking your history and a look at the site, it is still uncertain to give a firm correct answer. To help you master preparing yourself so as to meet a doctor efficiently, please read "Sick? What to Do?" at http://formefirst.com/eNewsletter06.html. However, based on the information described, clinically, the skin change could represent chronic ezcema with some skin fungal infection. To manage such, it is worthwhile to try the followings: 1. keep the area as clean and as dry as possible; 2. watch it if some soaps or detergents induce such skin changes; 3. try applying topical hydrocortisone 0.5%-1% with antifungal agent thinly once or twice daily for 5-7 days, and see. If not cleared up or improved, see your doctor for further suggestions - like seeing a dermatologist or urologist. Combining all above instructions, you will be ready to provide a reasonable quality of self-care before seeing a doctor.
