What Causes Frequent Itching In Armpits?

Hello, I have itchy armpits. I don t see any marks on them but they are itchy at times. I have a rash on my inner thigh and around the anus, it used to be very itchy and white(dry), like eczema and I started using a cream so it doesn t itch anymore and it s gone better. Is this anything concerning or just normal?
