Brief Answer:
Could be due to a fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. The colorization of a male's scrotum at the age of 72 years should be the same that he has been having for all these years. In other words, no change is expected. However, you could be having a fungal infection and that could be responsible for the itchiness as well as change in colour over the area. Application of Candid (clotrimazole) lotion or powder topically should provide relief. If treated properly, there is no reason to get concerned.

Let me know if I could help further.
