What Causes Red Patches On The Upper Portion Of The Scrotum?

Irritant contact dermatitis most probably
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM...
I read history and saw the photo. After that I could conclude that most probably you may be having irritant contact dermatitis. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis.
Irritant contact dermatitis of scrotum may be due to some cause like soap, detergent, color, perfume,perspiration..etc
There may be mild itching or burning. Or it may be asymptomatic.
Kindly avoid contact with suspected irritant.
I would suggest...
- oral steroid in tapering dose for one to two weeks
- antihistaminics if needed
- antibiotic if infection is suspected
- apply mild steroid with antibiotic cream like Eumosone G cream
- avoid soap at bath
- keep the area dry
- take Sitz bath in dettol mixed water
I hope this would help you to clear your skin disease.
Thanks.
