Itch guard is very harsh medication you should not use it regularly it will cause superficial burns in that area and permanent discolouration of skin.
Rashes in the inguinal areas and Thigh R most common in athletes other most common infection in athlete is athletes foot.
Next Steps
Feel free to consult with history where you have the itching actually so that I can describe you a cream which you can use without any side-effect

It is not a good idea to use itch guard daily. Better would be to frequently change into clean and dry clothes.
