Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a pretty common fungal infection of the groin and upper thighs.

Jock itch is caused by fungi called dermatophytes. These microscopic organisms are normal inhabitants of your skin, and stay in check as long as your skin is clean and dry. People taking broad-spectrum antibiotics, with weakened immune systems, or who have diabetes are more at risk to develop the rash.

Jock itch is also sometimes called crack fungus, crotch itch, bag rot or crotch rot. It is a common fungal infection that affects the skin of your inner thighs, buttocks and genitals.Itch

The rash may affect only your groin, but it may spread to include your inner thighs, genitals, and areas around your anus, rectum, or Lesions caused by jock itch can extend from the crease between the inner thigh and pelvis, over the adjacent upper inner thigh, and into the anal area.

I found low intakes of water create the dry skin itch down there. If cracking starts the fungus gets into the cracks and takes heed. To fix it Fluconazole works for me , stopping all otc supps and upping water intake has always fixed it. Changing skippies on a bi daily basis, ensuring the dirty ones are washed with hot water and bleach. And any form of Antifungal power used once in the morning. Some docs say loose skippies others say nut huggers. I found nut huggers during the day and boxers in the evening are best from me.
 
Using a gentle soap to wash your crotch area twice a day usually takes care of it. Working outside and in jeans usually add to the problem but can be easily countered in my honest opinion. The only thing that should be growing in your boxers is wood, not fungi.

There are special preventative soaps for these issues, use it!
