For The Last Month My Scrotum And Testicles Feel Cold
Question: For the last month my scrotum and testicles feel cold all the time. I have never felt this before. It’s causing the head of my penis and scrotum to retract all the time making me uncomfortable. My doctor said it could be jock itch but I tried treating it for two weeks and hasn’t helped. The thing that’s driving me the most crazy is the skin around my penis head that normally sits behind the head is continually going past we’re it normally does. I need answers please this makes sitting uncomfortable and I find myself trying to readjust all the time
Brief Answer:
Testicles sweating may cause them to be cool and skin retraction
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
The cool testicles may be usually caused by excessive sweating and the sweat remaining there can cause cool testicles and skin retraction is a normal reaction to cool temperature.
The excessive sweating may be caused by any infection, hyperthyroidism, non hodgkin lymphoma etc. Yeast infection can also cause your symptoms but you say that you got treatment without getting better.
You may need to do a total blood count with formula and thyroid hormone levels.
Also you may follow some tips:
Do warm showers often during day
Use loose, cotton underwear
Use talk to absorb excess moist
Wear properly in cold water
Hope I have answered the question.
