Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i have had a lot of problems with my testicles being very scratch to the point where i itched a lot at night and couldnt sleep. ive gotten tested for stds, went to the dr. and he said it was my soap, then a dermatologist and he gave me elidel and hydroxyzine. the hydroxyzine works at night but the elidel now is causing it to flame. ive been using aquaphor and vasoline on them but its very messy and it usually comes back. this past week i played softball and my testicles were raw the next day, this caused my testicles to bleed at night.. it has been doing it ever since.. what do i do
Thanks for contacting HCM for your medical concerns I am sorry to hear that you are having severe itching of your testicle and recently enough to cause bleeding. I believe that you are having sever itching from a possible candida infection or tinea cruris. By using elidel you actually maybe making the situation worse. I would recommend starting to use a anti-fungal powder like Tinactin or Lamisil to your genital area. I highly recommend you use it before and after all your sports activities to reduce occurrences.
Hope I answered your question. Please feel free to contact us again for you medical concerns and questions
