Have Seborrhoeic Eczema On Testicles And Using Neosporin. Suggest The Cure

Question: HI, I have searched images online and have dedeuced that I have Seborrhoeic eczema on mt testicals and skin around my testicals. It hasnt scaled up bc ive kept it moisturized with natural body butters, coconut oils, etc and have just started using Neosporin. It starts to itch badly about twice a day, and then i apply some sort of moisturizer and it subsides, Ive stopped wearing underwear as its seems to be agitated by heat. Ive had it for a month now, i remember it came after i swam in a natural resevoir, however it may be unrelated. I've been under a lot of pressure at work, so it may be stress related. Ive never had exzema or psoriaisis before. How can i cure this? can it be done with over the counter drugs. Thanks

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
It is a fungal infection.
As you mentioned you had this after a bath in pond, the diagnosis becomes more clear.
Pond has lot of fungi and when we take bath these get lodged in folds of skin.
As the genital area is soft and moist the fungus develops and causes infection.
Yes the medicationis available over the counter.
Ask for clodid b cream, apply it twice daily for 15 days.
Take tab fungicide 150 mg per week for 4 weeks.
Thank you
