Answer
I think you have developed an allergy to something.... sanitary pads?  Or have a low grade yeast infection (jock itch in men) that flares at times.

Get your doctor to give you some Mycolog II cream and use it twice a day for a couple weeks, and use some powder to absorb moisture and see if it helps.
