What Causes Severe Itchiness On The Scrotum?
I am a very active individual, and I wear compression shorts on a regular basis. I shave my crotch and my scrotum, so I maintain my cleanliness. The past few weeks my scrotum has been very itchy, and I am developing a fishy odor. It s more frustrating than anything, because I maintain a regular cleaning down there. I m guessing it might be a yeast infection, but I wanted to get a doctor s opinion. What do you think?

You may need clinical examination and antifungal like clotrimazole ointment.You may need to apply twice over the area.
Try to keep private area dry.
You may also need antihistaminics.
