What Could Itchy Red Scrotum Suggest?
Hello, I have had a red scrotum for 5 months now. Without something on it, it itches. Have used Lamisil, lotrimin and a mixture of anti-fungal with Nystatin. All keep itch away and prevent from spreading but won't cure infection. When looking closer at red skin, I see many tiny white spots that I don't have where not infected. Told I have jock itch but 5 months, maybe something different?

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having fungal infection giving rise all these symptoms.
In this case only local application is notenough.
Go for oneoral anti-fungal medicine course like Flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 4 weeks.
Keep local hygiene clean, dry and well shaved.
Ok and take care.
