Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Your problem may be due to either one of these:
1. Scrotal eczema
2. Seborrheic Dermatitis
3. Fungal Infection
You already tried Steroid creams and Anti fungal creams with some relief. Your pictures are more towards scrotal dermatitis.You please consult a dermatologist. By examining your condition, he/she may be able to come to a better diagnosis.
Topical applications alone will give you temporary relief. You have to take some XXXXXXX medicines also like anti fungal or vitamins, anti histamines. The only you get a complete cure.
Your physician will help you to have a better choice of appropriate anti fungal creams or steroids as you need. That all will you give a total relief. wash your inner-wears thoroughly daily till thereis any detergents left over. Kindly follow your physician's advice.
Have speedy recovery.
