Suggest Treatment For Fungus Growth On Scrotum Hair
175lbs, 5'8, 18years old. I have noticed for a while that there seems to be a fungus growing on my scrotum hairs. I have tried to get rid of it by washing more liberally and removing the hair by shaving. however it keeps coming back. it is a thin lair of orange stuff on the hairs, mostly on the sides of the scrotum. what is this and how do i get it to go away?

Hi. Have you tried antifungal ointments. They usually help and if you think that you sweat too much leading to moist under areas most of the day then you should use an antifungal powder twice a day. If the problem does not get resolved please see a Dermatologist. Take care and feel free to ask me any more questions on Ask a Specialist icon. Take care.
