'''Jock itch''' (tinea cruris) is a [[fungus|fungal]] infection that affects the thighs, buttocks, and genitals. It is identical to the ring-like fungal infection characterized by [[Athlete's foot]] and some ringworm infections of the scalp. Jock itch can be caused by the same things as [[Athlete's foot]], and can even be spread to the thighs and genitals from a concurrent foot infection. Generally, jock itch is not serious, but it can be for individuals with compromised immune systems. Topical [[anti-fungal]] creams and keeping the area dry are ways to clear an infection rapidly. <ref>http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/jock-itch/DS00490</ref>
