Why do other people get rashes in their private parts? Is one of the causes having many women? Sharif, Primary Six
Response from Parkhurst, Justin (D.Phil):
Dear Sharif
A health worker can tell you more about this; however, there can be many reasons for rashes in someone’s private parts. Some sexually transmitted infections can cause it, and if someone has sex with many women this will greatly increase the chances of catching one of those infections. Other non-sexual infections may also lead to this, so if you are concerned about a specific problem I would recommend you see a doctor or health worker about it.
Response from Dr.Brondi Luciana:
Dear Sharif,
There are different reasons for getting a rash in your genitals. One of the reasons could be having a Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) since some STIs can produce rash in the genital area. People who have sex with more than one person can get STI more easily. If you or a friend developed a rash in the genital area, you should go to a clinic and get checked by a medical professional (doctor, nurse or medical officer) to exclude an STI.
STIs are usually easy to treat
