I need help

A few days ago I was in mexico with a few friends. We proceeded to get drunk on the cheap beer and visit a strip club. One thing led to another and I ended up getting oral and vaginal sex from a stripper. I wore a condom but what concerns me is that I had a rash before the sexual intercourse and wanted to know the chances are of contracting an std or aids through a rash where the skin may have been broken? Any information would be helpful. I plan on going and getting tested in the next couple of days but I am freaking out because I didnt think about what I could get when this happened.

Flaky/scaly sounds like jock itch, but you really need to see a doc, and you still need to abstain until your symptoms are gone.

You can share fungal infections with partners, and then you end up ping-ponging it back and forth, and that's no fun.

The affected area is on my genitals. i may have worded it wrong but the area is more like jock itch than a rash. does that make a difference? It itches so when i scratch it sometimes it becomes raw because the skin gets dry and flakes/scales off revealing the lower layer of skin. it usually doesnt bleed but i am still worried that something could have gotten through.

Well, your chances are increased if the rash was in the genital area, but you did use a condom, so that helps counter that.

You shouldn't ever have sex when you have a rash or any other symptoms genitally.  You could be passing something to the other person.
