HEALTH: JOCK ITCH


Ha ha! Made ya look. No it’s not a penis STD.

Jock itch is a form of ringworm – a fungal infection of skin, hair or nails. Jock itch looks like a patchy rash and is itchy. The edge of the rash may be scaly or have bumps that look like blisters. This fungus can flourish in moist body parts like the groin, inner thighs or buttocks.

You can get ringworm from public showers or locker rooms, so all you men that play soccer at Astro Turf, please be wary. These places are steamy with damp towels and sweaty work out outfits. I can just see those fungal species dancing kukere. Yeesh.

Although, it’s not very serious, nobody like itching so see a doctor/ pharmacist if you get such symptoms and get a prescription for an antifungal cream.

And before you start revving junior’s engine, please know that jock itch, while it isn’t an STD, can DEFINITELY BE TRANSMITTED during sex (Is there anything that can’t be transmitted during sex? Nawa oh)

Be safe, be healthy.
