Without external examination it is very difficult to confirm a diagnosis,but the various possibilities for your symptoms are bruising due to sexual intercourse or overmasturbation,pigmented nevi,lentigo or acanthosis nigricans.
Acanthosis nigricans is a brown to black, poorly defined, velvety hyperpigmentation of the skin, usually present in the posterior and lateral folds of the neck, the axilla, groin, umbilicus, and other areas.
I sincerely advise you to consult a dermatologist and get yourself evaluated for these possibilities.Till then, you should keep the area clean, wear lose comfortable clothes to avoid sweating, use a powder to keep the area dry and use calamine lotion at the sites. Oral antihistamine medications would help if the lesions are itchy.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted if you have any additional doubts.
