itching scrotum and sticky substance?

Recently I've notice that the skin on my scrotum has become slightly swollen, among that I seem to be sweating a sticky substance from my balls. It's quite itchy, also the skin on my penis is quite dry and itches often too.

Please help as I'm very embarrased and confused to what it is.

Cheers.

I currently have the same problem. The problem started when it got hot and I had jock itch. I sprayed some tinactin down their and in a few days my scrotum was burning. The skin gets sticky and sometimes very red. When it is red it hurts to walk.
I went to my primary doctor twice and Dermatologist twice. The Dermatologist says it is contact dermatitis. The online doctor says it is eczema, which is basically the same thing.
I have been using eczema cream and topical steroids when it gets bad.
This has been going on for over two months now. Their is a possibility it could take years to correct itself.
I sympathize with you. I hope yours isn't as bad.

Yeah I have it and about a thousand people online have it. Itchy red gooey penis with no Std's. at times even little red bumps, at times cracked dry but no itch, happens about once every 3-6 months. You forget about it when it goes away but once it comes back your all looking for the answer again. Well I have been looking for it for 6 years....4 doctors and still no luck getting help. I feel your itchy std like pain without the std. yeah it sucks.

I have another appointment with a dermatologist in April but the current consensus is that it's eczema.
The rash has been plaguing me for nine months straight now. Sometimes it hurts to walk. The skin doesn't itch and it's not dry and cracked but red and irritated. Not psoriasis but doesn't look like eczema either.

You might just be chaffing (Spell?) I have the same problem, (I'd imagine that most folks who have larger thighs and are busy most of the day have this problem)
I hope that's all it is.
