Jock Itch Causes, Symptoms & Treatments
Symptom #3: Blisters
Jock itch may present with red spots or blisters, especially when bacteria is the cause. For example, in impetigo, the condition starts as sores that develop into blisters. Eventually, the blisters may burst open, oozing a yellowish fluid that forms a honey-colored crust on the skin’s surface.
As the crust forms, itching may escalate. Scratching an itch removes the crust, which causes bleeding and pain. Swelling of the lymph glands in the crotch area may also occur. When the wounds heal, they leave behind red marks, but they ultimately fade away and leave no scars.
