Hello,

First of all how do you know its fungal infection? There are lot many causes of dry skin of scrotum with burning sensation like allergy. A fungal infection usually occurs with white scaly skin with itching and local and/or systemic antifungal medications (e.g., Clotrimazole cream and Ketoconazol tablets) are prescribed for the same according to the severity of the condition.

You should consult a dermatologist and get it examined. Till then if it is a fungal infection, you should keep the area dry and clean. Use cotton wear and prefer loose clothings.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nisha Agrawal
