Dry peeling scrotal skin, with redness and burning sensation

Use Dettol soap. Try a small bar and check if it works for you. Shud work from day 1. Also, don't use same underwear twice without washing. This will just help prevent the problem. I don't know what the cure is.

I've been advised by a pharmacist against long-term use of hydrocortisone, because it can cause thinning of the skin. Maybe the doc who prescribed it for your scrotum caused the thinning of your scrotal skin.

Ive had dry skin on my head for the last 12 years, in the last year started getting itchy scrotom and rash between fingers. the scrotom came and went but has been consistant for last month, also this year have had over 6 boils when they stopped is when the scrotom area started bad. I believe it to be some sort of auto immune thing have been checked for all stds no luck wish i had one so i could find remedy to this, i use aloe for my head it helps but after shower feels like my skin is being pulled off if i dont get cream on it, garlic help the other places, i put clove right on and rub around. the only time my head cured for any amount of time was when i was in tropical countries for a few months, my guess is high humidity, heat and ocean water, to bad doctors wont sign perscription for it though, if all else fails im going back to islands good luck

This has worked for me for two years now. First, white 100% cotton boxer shorts (baggy not boxer briefs). Next, talcum powder after you shower (get all the nooks and crannies, LOL).  And last, dye and perfume free laundry detergent (Tide makes one).

Had nasty case in of jock itch in my bumm crack... diaper rash as an adult is to embarrassing...

After several trips to doctors. I used clortrimozle mostly plus several other types of steroidal anti-fungals.  My sack and shaft started getting that red, itchy flaky horribleness. After reading several other peoples info I put together a timeline of symptoms, and it's fairly reasonable that the anti-fungals were creating the rqed chapped nasty.  

Bad ass docter told me to get rid of anti-fungals and use goldbond and desitin cream... not the paste.  

it's working!!!

I started a month ago... I had used steroid creams unknowingly for a month

 

DESITIN

 

I had the same thing,,, get you a. Tanning bulb that emits uva uvb uvc,,, i bought a facial tanning lamp for 125. But u can buy a 100watt uv bulb,, like they use in reptile cages,,,for around 30 bucks,, use the bulb 20 MIN for two weeks,,, red itching peeling nut CURED,,, i tried every cream ,powder, ointment for years,,, now its gone,, think about it makes scene,, spraed the good news when ever you can,,,

i have redness and itchiness on each sides of my scrotum and underneath my penis at the base i have redness and what seems to be a bit of moisture there also. in the middle of my scrotum its normal in color and is unaffected. it does not itch nor is it red. only on the sides of my scrotum particularly the left side is red and itchy. there is no redness on my thighs or inner thighs. the problem is only on the sides of my scrotum(primarily on the left side of scrotum) and at the base of my penis. everything else is normal and does not itch. its been like this for 3 weeks.

 

i went to the derm last week and they claim its contact dermatitis. so i was prescribed cordran sp. she told me use eucerin skin calming lotion and the cordran sp together. she claims it could take a month to fully heal. 

what i want to know is, is really contact dermatitis or is it a fungal infection? because she swears its contact dermatitis. also i heard corticosteroids  thin your skin. im not sure what caused this problem for me this is my first time ever dealing with something liek this. im a 31 yo male.

im really looking for a cure for this problem. its freaking me out.

Im 49 i have had this problem since i was in my late 20's,Began when i started working out and running at the beach, The doctors prescribed ointments just made it last longer,so i stopped using them.1 doctor told me it was my the dyes in my colored underwear haha ,thats when i knew they dont have a solution of getting rid of it ,just treat it ,so what i have been doing since i was 31 years old when it breaks out is wear no clothing when im home alone and try and use my vacation and or sick days,you want it to dry out soon as possible and only air will do that shower without soaps during this time ,so you will be showering multiple times in a day to relieve the itching when at work ill place white regular toilet paper between my sack and thigh area through out the day 

i have the same problem and I used Petroleum Jelly and it helps a lot. I used it continuously until the skin texture and color returned and the flaking of skin stops.

Seriosly? Wtf is this? Read through 4 pages of comments and none of it contain a remedy? How can something that is happening to so many people have no remedy? I find it quite absurd.  Tons of description and no cure? What so we all suppose to just watch our balls rot away. I am sure there is some simple solution to this and i think everyone here would really appreciate if you could like just god damn post the cure. My left side of the ball sack is dried up and some of it just peeled off and the skin is raw now... So before it comes to the point i need to become a eunuch. Please post a cure and not a first hand quality description of the condition. It just making many frustrated and not one bit helpful.

Used Selsun Blue shampoo down there every day for about 6 weeks.  Worked for me!  All normal again. Still use the Blue shampoo a couple times a week thinking it might prevent and future problems.

I just got this a month and half ago. I noticed it started to itch when I had sex with my gf, then I about a few weeks I noticed the flaking I shaved my scrotum area and noticed that is flaking and getting white. I'm wondering if I got it from her. I'm also wondering if I can infect other women. That would totally SUCK! I also think that maybe this also started when I started using baby powder. Anyway, I need to get the itching to go away.

Aloe Vera gel I swear to god, it sorted me 100 percent 

Well I hate to say this but I have been dealing with this for over 15 years.  I am 40 now and my god it's awful.  I have seen several doctors, dermatolgists, accupuncturitsts and Nateuropaths.  I have taken every over the counter anti fungal known to man kind.  I have tried several prescription cortisone creams, yeast creams, combination of both creams, etc.  Yep all useless.  I have found nothing that really makes it better.  It's very embarrasing and very painful.  I don't understand it well noone does.  I have tried things for psoraisis or however you spell it.  Gold bond cream and powder, baby powder, zinc oxide, diaper rash creams, vaseline, wow I have to stop.  I would pay $$$$$$$ for the resolution of this.  I shower every morning and evening.  I have tired baby shampoo, super moisturizing body washes, and everything in between.  I have no solution or help but would appreciate it if anyone does.  It's silly but I have scratched at times so hard I have strarted bleeding.  I know I scratch in my sleep too because sometimes I wake up and there is a little blood spot.  

I have had this problem for over 10 years!

I am 22, I went to the doctor when I was 17 he said its not that big of a problem and didn't give me anything. I have found over the years that scratching it with my finger nails only cause more pain and cuts. I cant count how many times i would scratch my balls before I would sleep. or in so much agony I would almost be crying. WTF is this White gunk on my junk! 

I have found some ways to help me cope with this burden of hate on my scrotum.

1. Exact-o knife

2. razorblade

3. Gold Bond Body (green bottle)

4. Cortizone 10 intensive healing formula

5. luffa

6. old toothbrush (i use the crest pro one)

7. DOVE SOAP (WHITE OR DOVE MEN)

8. a shower head you can point a jet of water at your nuts (got one for like 12$)

 

So you see that i have some  very sharp objects on there. I do not know all of the after-effects of using razorblades on my scrotum, but it helps to remove the white c**p. so every 2-3 days I scrape off the gunk, some times in little-large flakes of skin or scraping like dust, its pretty disgusting. so I usually do it over the toilet and clean up afterwords. I have nicked a little of skin and also have open up some sores with this method. It hurts a little bit but w/e

After I 'scrape' I get the shower nice and hot and wash my junk. First I luffa, then I take the toothbrush and go to town with the hot water blasting and stretching my scrotum out making sure to get every spot clean. After I wash them I use the dove men soap ON MY BODY, I DO NOT PUT THE SOAP ON MY BALLS!!! I continue to wash my body and then take the back of the tooth brush and rub that on there, then the bristles. When I am getting ready to exit the shower I have my towel to dry with and my "butt-towel" 

Occasionally I very gently run the blade over my sack and this white mucus stuff is already on it. Sometimes it still itches really bad so i gold bond that sh*t. and if its REALLY BAD I used the Cortizone 10.

This method may work or may not work for you but the Cortizone 10 and the gold bond work instantly for a little while.

Good luck with your white stuff!Please try to improve this method or add to it !!!
