Couldn't find what you looking for?

TRY OUR SEARCH!

I'm totally not sure how this happened. A week or so ago my testicles were fairly itchy so I scratched at them through my clothing. I must of done it a little harder then usual because after a few days I checked to see why the hell they were still itchy and realised there were some little cuts that were healing, and others that were raw. I thought I must have rubbed at them too hard.

For the last 4 days or so I've done my best to do scratch at all. I'd maybe press against them to relieve the itching if it got too bad. But its not going away and I still see the small sores. I've been thinking of maybe putting that red iodine stuff on them, but I thought I'd ask first. I'm extremely clean, shower every day, had no sexual encounters for quite a few months. Any help would be appreciated as I'm getting furstrated. I need to mention they arent itchy as in I'm going crazy constantly, just a slight constant in the background. Maybe frmo clothes pressed up against them or whatever.

Hey there,

This often happens a few days after you shaved your scrotum, when the pubic hair start to grow. Anyway, it could be a kind of yeast or fungal infection or hives. Did you have notice any rash or hives around your pubic area?

To single out possible STD, I just need to ask you - Did/when you had last sexual intercourse?

Let us know more so we could help you further!

I havent shaved in that area and I dont notice any rash. Last time I was with someone was about a year ago. I sometimes get little iches alot my lower legs and I'm starting to wonder if it might be mites or something. But why focus on just the lower outsides of the testicles, which are generally the best spot for a rash since they rub on the skin and not anywhere else on the boy.

I'm going to clean the room up tomorrow just to make sure, but I dont really know what could be the cause. I know I cant of scratched that hard. Theres a few small spots where it looks like it would have to scratched hard with nails to cause that sort of abrasion. Somethings made the skin a little upset. Some of them are clotting and healing, but theres a few others that have no business being there as I havent scratched at all for a few days.

I should also add the itching is only there if I'm wearing something. So its not like a mosquito bite type itching.

You're wearing underwear that you are most likely allergic to. That is most likely why it is in one location and only when you are wearing clothes. Try switching up your underwear to a whole different kind (I.E from cotton to polyester) NOT SILK! Silk does not breath at all and you will end up killing your sperm and sweating profusely. If that doesn't work try a different style, perhaps something a little looser. You might just be wearing clothes that are too tight.

avoid using underwear that are too tight or too loose, this might have been causing itchiness. get some over-the-counter medication and if it doesn't help, consult your doctor.

  Smitty,

 

     I am so thankful just for the fact of reading your Post. 

     If I may...  What exactly happened with your situation in regards to your posts?  Any answers?

     Needless to say...  But I have been suffering from something very similiar..

     I have read endless articles..  Endless!!  I should be a dermatologist by now

     A couple facts seperated what you were describing from all the other info out there!!!

     The lower legs...  I originally started with moderate/ severe itching on my lower leggs (side and frontal calf) (I actually seemed to cure the legg rash and itching by using diluted bleach...  3 days in a row..  Of course do not recommend this to anyone, but it treated my legg)

     At the same time I was dealing with a rash on my scrotum...  Have never exp anything like it..  Geesh...by now it has been several years..

     Started with itching...  Then..  extreme itching..  I mean, chicken pox itching...  over time and all the way to today...  I sometimes scratch with my nails to the point where bleeding and sores can form..  This heals quickly If I caqn manage not to scratch..

     Then a couple years ago...  a couple flesh colored bumps have appeared with the rash (I say rash I just mean redness from itching and sometimes raised) The bumps are like a volcano where I can sometimes puch out a little tiny drop of puss but mostly a drop of clear fluid.....

     Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

My suggestion:  probably, eczema, but never rule out syphillis, until you have a syphilis test. Those bumps and/or hives or itchy red areas on your testicles could be one sign of syphilis. I had it recently - those were the only sign I had.

I too have a similar problem. My testicle skin becomes itchy specially at 1 to 5 AM in the night OR any time in a day that is un predictable. However, I bath twice in a day & maintain hygiene. My testicle skin is clean. Even then. the itching is quite un sustainable & I am forced to scratch to relieve. I tried different moisturizers that gives temporary relief . I also tried BATADINE ointment. Still the scratch to relieve feeling does not go. pl. help.
