Upon researching the procedure to treat it on my privates, I found a site where a guy thought he had poison ivy there, but it ended up being scabies. This of course sent me into instant super itch mode. I've never had it, and don't know anyone that has it, but i was wanting to see if anyone could identify if this was poison ivy, or -gulp- scabies.
Also to be noted is that at the same time i have come up with this rash, I have also developed a head and chest cold. That is probably not relevant, but perhaps it could be. And when I took a shower last night, my hands got really red, like in the porous areas.
Here are the links to my pics:

I found out that one of my roomates that I camped with has the same exact reaction, in similar spots, and even the same reaction to the hot water as I do. However, our third roommate does not have this reaction, as of yet.
If anyone could help out, that would be fantastic.
No, I didn't have a cancre sore. Also, syphilis is hard to contract minus sexual contact, which I don't have. Regardless, the rash has come and gone for the most part.
