View allI'm really struggling with itchy testicles. It got worse when my thighs rubbed together and gave me rashes, making it super uncomfortable to stand, sit, or walk around. I saw a dermatologist, and they said it's a fungus and bacterial infection. I've dealt with this itchy black skin on my inner thighs for ages. They gave me itzhh and anti-fungal powder, and I've been using them for about a month. The black skin's improved by around 40%, but the itchiness and stickiness on my testicles are still there. What should I do?
It sounds like you're dealing with a fungal and bacterial infection, specifically: *Jock Itch (Tinea Cruris) and Intertrigo* Given your symptoms and treatment, here's what you can do: *Continue Treatment* 1. *Finish the prescribed medication*: Complete the full course of Itzhh and antifungal powder as directed by your dermatologist. 2. *Maintain good hygiene*: Keep the affected area clean and dry. *Additional Measures* 1. *Antifungal creams or powders*: Apply an antifungal cream or powder, like clotrimazole or miconazole, to the affected area. 2. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a carrier oil (coconut or olive oil) and apply to the affected area. 3. *Wear loose, breathable clothing*: Avoid tight-fitting boxers and opt for loose, breathable clothing. 4. *Dry the area thoroughly*: After showering or bathing, dry the affected area thoroughly, especially between the folds of skin. *Testicular Itchiness and Stickiness* 1. *Apply a topical cream*: Use a topical cream or ointment containing hydrocortisone or calamine to reduce itchiness and inflammation. 2. *Keep the area clean*: Gently clean the testicular area with mild soap and warm water. *Follow-up* 1. *Schedule a follow-up appointment*: Visit your dermatologist after completing the treatment to assess progress and adjust treatment if necessary. Remember to be patient, as it may take some time to fully recover from the infection.
