Question: recently I noticed a lot of dead skin(like the ones you develop when recovering from a scratch) developing around my groin area and testicles, these are slightly itchy and often these dead skin shed while i am cleaning and I find them again after a while, is this some sort of skin infection?

Brief Answer:
Please upload images

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can understand your concern.

I can guide you better if you can upload images of the dead skin in and around the groin and testicles.

This could possibly be a fungal infection.

I can guide you better once I receive the images.

Thank you.
