Yellow/Brown Spots on Irritated itchy Scrotum

hey there,

its hard to say exactly what it is. are there any pictures you have seen that look similar? how old are you, are you sexually active and do you have any allergies?

Thanks for responding,

I'm 18 years old and have recently broken up with my girlfriend (So haven't been active for a month or so now). I could find no images of the same sort of problem I am having. If I have any allergies I don't know about them yet, but I did use some clear skin moisturiser to try and settle the itchiness of it all, which seemed to have got it to this point.

I have stopped using that cream and have started washing and drying as often as I can to help clean the area and keep it dry as It could be bacterial or it could be fungle, it could be something i am not aware of too so I'm trying everything right now.

Hey concernedgentleman,



Its really hard to guess what it may be without a picture so if you could upload one it may prove to be really helpful... just make sure you put the caption....warning... graphic content......veiwer discression advised..... or something along thoes lines so that theos not wanting to view it willl be warned.



did you say that after you stopped using the clear skin moisturizer that your skin is getting better? what was the brand and type of moisturizer called.

have you ever been checked for any STD's and have you noticed any if these "scabs" on any other parts of your body (pubic area, inner thighs, stomach ect). finally was this girlfriends your first partner or have you had sex or sexual contact with others. if so how long ago was that?and has she had sex with anyone else. if so has she been tested for STD's?

Thanks

I hope you had a Great New Years as well

Happy New Year to you too :)

It was "Tesco's Clear Skin dual action moisturiser" which I found lying around, mainly used for my hands when they get a little dry. I used this product when it first started itching abnormally which seemed to have irritated it a bit and became as it is now. Since I have stopped it doesn't seem to be getting any worse and whilst keeping the area as dry as possible, it seems to be helping.

I havn't been checked for an STD no, But I have only had any sexual relations with one girl and she has only had sexual relations with me, which I hope ticks off the concern of an STD :-|.

I have never seen any of this type of skin problem anywhere else on my body, which is why I was in a panicked state when I first saw it. In terms of the Image, I will do my best to try find a similar skin problem. I would not be able to upload an image from myself as I don't have the equipment to take an image without it coming out extremely blurry.

Thanks again for your help :D

Your welcome.

 

Try looking up pictures of psoriasis or eczema and see if it resembles any of thoes.... it could just be dry irritated skin. u may also want to look up candidia or jock itch (tinea cruis)

Thanks

Update: The affected area seemed to have become scabby on the areas where the yellow/brown spots were. I guess this is a good sign as my body seems to be dealing with it, I think the drying helped the cause.

I have looked through many different images of skin irritations including the ones you recommended and could not find anything similar. If I was to guess what caused it, I would say it could have been that I have been quite lazy since the last few month of drying myself properly after showers and such. I read that doing that could cause problems like the ones I have been having.

I very much appreciate you helping me this this, as it was a very stressful and confusing time for me. There really arn't words to describe how thankful I am for this site and yourself

Hey Man, you are VERY welcome. I know how hard/scary times can be when something goes on with our man parts.... NOT COOL and i glad i could help you out.  let me know how it goes and if it continues to get better or worse.  not drying yourself thouroughly can lead to different skin conditions including fungal infections, bacterial infections or chaffed irritated skin just to name a few....

If you have any more questions or concerns about anything. you know where to go.  amd you can also send a private message if you want to get ahold of me directly.... just click the envalope next to my username or click on the messages link in your navigator area of the home screen (on the mid to lower right side of the screen).
