It actually may be chafing resulting in a small rash from the bathing suit rubbing on your sensitive parts. Try adding some baby cream to the area. It is usually fairly water proof and can help reduce chafing if that is the issue.
Other than that, you may have too small of a swimsuit. I know you probably don't want to hear that but it's true. Many women experience rashes where their swimsuits are just too tight for them. The tight friction on the skin isn't good and by going in and out of the chlorine water so much you do risk infection on open wounds and damaged skin tissue.
If neither of those things do any help then see a doctor. It's possible that it's an infection under the skin at this point or that you're allergic to the chemicals in the pool (and they dry in those areas so cause you to break out more there) and will need to take some medication before swimming. There is also a very slight possibility that you had previously contracted herpes on that area and the friction causes an outbreak. ]
