Suggest Remedy For Itchy Scrotum

Hi Doctor,Few weeks back my scrotum started to itch a little so I scratched it. It became worse with every day passing and eventually I scratched my scrotum open a little. I shower twice every day, with out bodysoap, just a shampoo. Now my scrotum is very sensitive, the itching has not yet go away, and every morning when I wake up, I feel it burning. I got red spots now at the right and left side op my scrotum. Can you give me some tips and advice about my issue? Currently 18 Years old, 1,81 m, 87kg.

Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the facts that you have posted the itching of the scrotum that ou have is due to what is called as Jack Itch .

Using topical anti fungal cream like Meconazole twice daily after washing scrotum thoroughly with warm water should resolve the issue within a week .

Wash your inner wares in boiling hot water mixed with antiseptic solution of Dettol

Use loose inner wares and avoid wearing tight pants .
