What Causes Discoloration On The Hair Under The Scrotum?

It seams like the hairs under my scrotum are kinda blonde. Ive looked it up and people have mentioned Trichomycosis Axillaris I googled it and looked at images (yeah not the best idea i know google images can show severe cases much of the time), but my hairs dont seam to have a thick crust to them although i can see a slight thickness and they re easier to break than normal dark brown ones. I would go see a doctor but of course i have t give my mom a reason and i don t want anyone to think poorly, plus Im not sure blonde pupes would sound like an actual issue to my parents. Although Im sure its not too bad, Im pretty sure its something.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As per my surgical experience the discoloration of hair under scrotum, if associated with itching or discomfort can be suggestive of inflammatory condition or pigment disorder of some sort most likely. Kindly get an examination with expert skin specialist for further guidelines ahead. Primary care with sitz bath added epsom salt and lavender oil will help a great deal till the time you approach to consult your dermatologist.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
