What Causes Itching Inside The Scrotum And Treatment With Tinactin Has Not Helped?
Hi, I have an itch INSIDE my scrotum, I repeat INSIDE my scrotum, not ON the outer skin, for several years now. Recently I treated it with Tinactin which I ve used in the past for jock itch. It has worked in the past but did not work or improve after using the Tinactin for 3 weeks this time. I only tried the Tinactin out of desperation because I thought maybe the fungus got deeper in the skin but as expected it had no effect. At its best I might feel the itchy sensation every couple of days for a few seconds or minutes or at its worst several times a day but only for a very small bit of time as I described. I get relief by pinching the skin of the scrotum because you can t scratch inside the scrotum of course and it works. I am not experiencing any jock itch or fungal skin infection symptoms on the outer skin right now and I know what that s like due to past experience so is the fungal infection inside now or is it something else? I have not been active sexually for 6 years, nothing, other than masturbation.I am 59.

What Causes Itching Inside The Scrotum And Treatment With Tinactin Has Not Helped?
Hi, It may be tinea cruris most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend... - Tab cetirizine 10 mg daily - Cap itroconazole 100 mg daily - luliconazole cream - bath in dettol mixed water - improve hygiene - keep area dry Hope this helps.
