Ive been dealing with itchy testicles, and one day my thighs rubbed together due to my boxers, causing rashes. I couldnt stand, sit, or walk comfortably. I visited a dermatologist, and he said it was a fungal and bacterial infection. Ive had this itchy, black skin on my inner thighs for a long time. He prescribed Itzhh and an antifungal powder. Now, after almost a month, the black skin on my thighs has reduced by about 40%, but my testicles are still itchy and sticky. What should I do next? Please help.
