What Causes Severe Burning, Itching And Bleeding Around Scrotum?

Prolonged continuous treatment, good hygiene
Detailed Answer:
hello
Thanks for the query.
You have developed a fungal infection of the groin known as tinea cruris.
it is a chronic condition and needs prolonged treatment.
I treat such cases with a strong anti-fungal agent like itraconazole for 15 days followed by a weaker antifungal having a prolonged effect like fluconazole for another two months.
It is important that the medication should be continued for at least three months at one stretch even if there are no symptoms.
Is also important to maintain good personal hygiene.
You must dry your undergarments in sunlight, The fungus survives in undergarments and as soon as the medication is stopped it comes back again.
Please meet your treating doctor and discuss regarding the course of medication advised by me.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
