I've been dealing with a bindi allergy for the last 5 years and I've tried so many ointments but nothing seems to work. Any ideas on what else I can do or try? It's been really frustrating, so I'm hoping for some advice.

Hey, so I've noticed over the past 56 days that the skin on my testicle sack is getting dry and scaly. When I'm bathing, a thin scaly layer peels off. I've always been good with hygiene, so I'm not sure why this is happening. Today it started itching, and when I rubbed it gently, it felt like a burning sensation, kind of like a paper cut. After cleaning it in the shower, the whole area turned red. I've tried using creams like itch guard, dermigo5, and luliconazole which I got from the medical store, but nothing seems to be helping. I felt a bit embarrassed to go to the doctor in person. I'm just worried about what's going on. Do you know what this could be and should I see a dermatologist or a sexologist about it?

You may be experiencing a fungal infection in the skin of your scrotum. The burning sensation, dryness, scaliness, and redness are common symptoms of such an infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice daily for 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with this rash on my butt for about 2-3 months and I'm not sure what's causing it or how to get rid of it. I've been using a medication called Itrasis200, but I'm wondering if there's something else that might help or if I should try a different approach. Do you have any advice on what could be causing this or other treatments I could consider?

For the rash on your butt, you can try using a topical antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) 10mg once daily to help with itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to prevent further irritation.
