Hello,
It is normal to find ringworm of scrotum and sometimes there may be ringworm of penis as well but it presents as circular itchy lesion rather than a non itchy lesion. This spot if it is non itchy can be due to chafing skin or contact dermatitis as well. Chafing is a continuous rubbing of the skin that causes redness or soreness.
It occurs when the skin becomes irritated by the friction caused by rubbing either against other skin or against a foreign material. You need to consult a dermatologist and get it evaluated to confirm the diagnosis.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

You could have a fungal infection. You could use a jock itch cream. If your feet also have symptoms, you can use the same cream for athlete's foot. If your partner has a yeast infection, that needs to be treated also. It's all a fungal infection and very common. It is not an STD if it is a fungal infection, yet it can be easily spread between people.
