Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello young fellow,

Don't be scared of red line on the scrotum. The line is not at all related to any sexually transmitted infection. A sexually transmitted infection can only occur if you have had any unprotected intercourse with anyone, which is actually not in your case.

Avoid masturbation for few days and just relax.

Keep calm and stay fit.
