  5. Ive noticed white patches on my scrotal sacs, and theyre causing an itchy feeling. A friend suggested it might be a fungal infection, so Ive been using antifungal powder. The itching is getting better, but I havent seen any reduction in the size of the white patches. What should I do now?

It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection such as jock itch. In addition to using an antifungal powder, you can also try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it to the affected area twice a day for about 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the white patches do not improve or if they worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
