What Is The Treatment For Fresh, Itchy, And Painful Sores On Scrotum?
Hi Doctor, I was facing terrible itching on my scrotum. I used to occur mostly in the night. Due to scratching, sores used to occur on my testicles and it looked like an open wound. I consulted a local doctor and she diagnosed me for tiena cruris. She prescribed an ointment and antibiotic tabs. I have been on the medication for more than a week now. But the sores that appear due to itching are not heling. Dry skin comes up on the sores by night fall and I tend to itch in my sleep. So again the sores look fresh and are very painful. I request you to please advice me on this. Thank You Ved

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Tenia crurus takes time to heal and if you are manipulating the wound healing process then it will take more time. Get a culture and sensitivity test done for the wound and use an appropriate anti biotic.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, or want any further details about this same issue you can use the below mentioned link:
