I have gotten a rash before on my penisCancer - penis Curvature of the penis Penis care (uncircumcised) Penis pain but it was clearly due to wearing tight spandex and working out. It was dry skin. I recently was in a cold place for a weekend and didn't wear proper pants, it was often getting very cold in my pants and I was doing a lot of walking. I have looked at many photos and read up on genital herpes. My rash doesn't really look like any of the pictures on line and it is not sensitive. It seems like it could be dryness, it is not raised and it is not wet.
The best thing to do is to go see your provider to find out what is going on. It's most likely a fungal infection but you need professional evaluation to be sure.
Hate it when it gets cold in my pants... ;)
