Jock itch is a common, itchy rash of the groin. It can produce a very intense itch and is associated with a red or pink rash involving the groin folds and genitals. Jock itch is primarily a skin condition in men because of anatomic structures unique to males, the male genitalia - hence its epithet as "jock" itch.

Roughly half of jock itch is due to fungus. The remainder is caused by moisture, irritation, and bacterial overgrowth. The fungus can be spread as an STD but that is rather uncommon.
