Itchy Testicles And Penis, Spreading. Leathery Texture, Shiny. Jock Itch?
I have this rash problem. It started out and my testicles were real itchy, then it moved to the penis . It spread quite a bit to my inner groin . Now it s on my right quad, in between my fingers and on my bicep. It was also on my eyelid for a couple of days, but that cleared up pretty quick. The rash on my penis is almost like a leathery texture and kind of shiny. Is this just a bad case of jock itch?
