Check for intestinal Candida overgrowth as persistant fungus either there or in other places can be one of the results.

Any skin itch issues means that you are deficient in Zinc/selenium.
Take oral supplements and find a topical cream with zinc and as soon as the dificiency is over the itch will disappear.

Zinc and selenium play similar roles in the body if you are deficient in one of them your metabolism will use the other to compensate, which can easily cause a deficiency in the other if the metabolism demand is great.
Candida is prone to cause a huge need for both of them to prevent oxydation so it is advisable to suppl. with both as long as you suffer from candida.

You want something to work immediatly I assume? Try caol tar shampoo, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse. This should work, but I'm sure there are other topical lotions at the pharmacy for fungal infections. This is a short term solution if you suffer from systemic or chronic type infection.---Shroom

Outside of making sure the area is clean and dry, this could be a sign of systemic fungal infection that is more than surface. Has he changed his diet? Does he drink a lot of beer and alcohol? In essense, changing lifestyle seems to help the problems.

I found help on a lot of male issues on male sites like http://www.malehealthnews.com. They also have links to affiliates that offer natural and alternative remedies for male issues.

neem soap is the best thing for that.

use it just like you would a bar of soap
then right after the shower sprinkle some gold bond extra strength powder on it.

wear boxers that are made of cotton.

everything else i tried didnt work.
you might want to cut the bar in half and use it on your face. its an amazing face soap too.

you do have to adjust your diet as suggested above as well. or it will come back after you stop using whatever method you do to treat it.
