Suggest Treatment For Anal Itching

I have been to 2 dermatologist and both have not correctly diagnosed me or have helped me get rid of my scrotum and anal itching. I seem to have redness and a small red line that is in the middle of my scrotum. When i have scratched the area and i have seen skin flakes fall into the toilet there is movement from the skin. Any thoughts on what it is and how i can treat it.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Sounds like chronic dermatitis , fungal infection or other skin lesion. Best steps would be:
- Sterile antiseptic wash daily
- Keep the parts dry, wear loose, clean, cotton inner wears
- Local application of anti fungal dusting powder as miconazole (2%)
- Prescription drugs of fluconazole or ketoconazole for desired period of time till complete resolution of rashes
- Deworming agent as albendazole or mebendazole for anal itch

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
