What Causes Red Itchy Hair Roots In The Scrotum?
I am having red itchy at hair roots of my scrotum. I have seen them closely some kind of fluid comes out of it. They are 6-7 in number and there are no hairs around the surrounding area. I am facin this problem only in left side of my testicle, right side is clean. I am noticing this issue from 5-6 days.
I am very much concern about it. i am using antibaterial cream as I have been thinking that it is a skin infection disease. I havent consulted a doctor as I am bit shy in nature. Please help.
My all organs are working normally.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might have developed fungal infection.
Your description matches with that.
Usually fungal infections are itchy and recurrent.
Please get a KOH mount done,
This can confirm the fungal etiology.
Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals.
Treatment must be continued for at least a month to prevent recurrance.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
