Hi,
Itching could be due to fungal infection of the skin . You could try anti-fungal powders/creams available OTC.
Fungal infections are quite common in the groin area.
If it is due to friction then you could try some soothing lotion like calamine or some oil-based cream.
Keep area clean and dry . If it is a bacterial skin infection then an anti-bacterial cream applied to the area will help.
Lesions of herpes are fluid-filled blisters that crust over. I f you suspect that please consult with a dermatologist for further help.
