    I'm 22, not a frequent smoker.

    Are you meaning the area at the very bottom of your stomach?

    If so, describe you hygiene practices: do you take a shower every morning, or just now and again? Fresh underwear each morning or not? You obviously have something that is causing irritation - this normally occurs when several things are wrong.

    This can even include the likes of bedding - for example, have you stayed at hotel or hostel in recent months?

      My hygiene is absolutely fine, I haven't stayed in a public place for a while. Should i be worried, as I've always been a different colour down there just never in the lower stomach area.

      Thanks for the response so quickly.

      What you get used to on here is being something of 'an amateur detective' - Men raise issues that they are concerned about and the fundamental is getting at what could have caused it - you start with the broader possibilities and hopefully narrow it down to what it may actually be.

      So. here is another one: do you occasionally shave off all your pubic hair?

      If you have raised an issue, it must at least be something of a concern to you .. or at least, would be more comfortable knowing ....
