Itchy Buttocks Crack
I recently discovered a rash at the top of my butt crack...right between the cheeks. I don't know how to explain it, but it looks like i have burns down there. It's all red and irritated and there are a couple patches between my cheeks that look like permanent scars or something. Literally, the surface of these sores look like scar tissue after a burn. But they don't feel like they burn. I have noticed that they become pretty moist...even after i shower and dry myself about ten minutes later the rash/burns/scars are moist again...with a very light odour. It sometimes itches but very rarely, and it doesn't hurt to pee or anything. I am sexually active, but i have only been with one man and he is clean...so i don't think it is an STI or STD or anything. I shower and keep myself clean every day, but i have no idea what it is. Could it be from my butt cheeks rubbing together or something? I'm pretty worried but i don't want to see a doctor. Does anyone know what this irritated burn-like rash/scarring could be, and what i could use to cure it.

Butt Crack Rash Treatment
Itchy Butt Rash Causes The common cause of itchy buttocks rash is a skin condition called contact dermatitis. Contact dermatitis as the word contact suggests, it is a type of rash that appears when your skin comes in contact with a substance that cause irritation on the skin. Moisture from sweat or diarrhea may cause itching. If the anal skin stays wet, the skin begins to break down. Some foods irritate the anus when they are expelled during a bowel movement. The most common culprits are caffeine, chocolate, beer, nuts, dairy products, and spicy food. Infections such as pinworms, yeast, and genital warts can cause itching. The reason rashes are so itchy is because of the body’s natural immune response. During an infection, blood vessels in the butt dilate (get larger) to accommodate white blood cells (WBCs). This is one reason why rashes feel warm and look red.
