Question

I've been experiencing some mild itching on my scrotum, but it seems to get worse at night. I'm not sure what's causing it, and it's starting to really bother me. Can you help me figure out what might be going on and what I can do to fix it?

Mild itching on the scrotum, especially at night, can be caused by fungal infections like jock itch, irritation from sweat, or allergic reactions. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry, using antifungal creams like clotrimazole if it's fungal, and avoiding tight clothing. If the itching persists or worsens, please consult a doctor for further evaluation.
