It's a skin fungus (ew right?) and it's caused by moisture. I have the same problem because I scuba dive a lot so I'm constantly in the water and in a wetsuit. The only way you can get rid of it is with a perscription cream that your doctor will give you. It's nothing serious, so don't worry about it. You can also lessen the appearance of it by washing the area with Selsun Blue (my doctor told me to do this along with applying the cream) until you go to the doctor.
EDIT: I didn't think mine was caused by moisture either, but that's what my doctor told me. The way you describe it makes it sound like the same thing I have.
