What Causes Itching Around The Genital Area?
I started having itching on my legs around the penis, on the stomach and on the pennis and testikels 6 days ago. Small pimpels are to be seen on my legs but very little. My penis is what worries me, its dry and I try not to itch. If I do rub few parts of the penis get reddish and wet. What should I do.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
The main reason for itching in genital area is a mixed infection of bacteria and fungus.
Clean the parts well while you take bath. Dry it completely and apply Sertaconazole Topical Powder twice daily.
Take Levocetrizine 10 mg tablet once a day to control itch.
Keep the area healthy. You will get better in a week.
