I've been dealing with multiple sebaceous cysts on my scrotum that cause a lot of itching and discomfort. Is there any way to treat them without surgery? If so, what options do I have for managing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Sebaceous cysts on scrotum need hygiene and topical antibiotics; if recurrent or infected, minor surgical excision is definitive.

I'm getting really worried about the darkening of my underarms. It all started after I began using deodorants, and even though I stopped, they just keep getting darker. I've tried several whitening creams and home remedies, but nothing seems to work. I've switched to using turmeric extract with lime and honey for the past four days. I wax my underarms regularly, and I don't have any medical issues that I know of. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should try?

I'm really struggling with itchy testicles. It got worse when my thighs rubbed together and gave me rashes, making it super uncomfortable to stand, sit, or walk around. I saw a dermatologist, and they said it's a fungus and bacterial infection. I've dealt with this itchy black skin on my inner thighs for ages. They gave me itzhh and anti-fungal powder, and I've been using them for about a month. The black skin's improved by around 40%, but the itchiness and stickiness on my testicles are still there. What should I do?
It sounds like you're dealing with a fungal and bacterial infection, specifically: *Jock Itch (Tinea Cruris) and Intertrigo* Given your symptoms and treatment, here's what you can do: *Continue Treatment* 1. *Finish the prescribed medication*: Complete the full course of Itzhh and antifungal powder as directed by your dermatologist. 2. *Maintain good hygiene*: Keep the affected area clean and dry. *Additional Measures* 1. *Antifungal creams or powders*: Apply an antifungal cream or powder, like clotrimazole or miconazole, to the affected area. 2. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a carrier oil (coconut or olive oil) and apply to the affected area. 3. *Wear loose, breathable clothing*: Avoid tight-fitting boxers and opt for loose, breathable clothing. 4. *Dry the area thoroughly*: After showering or bathing, dry the affected area thoroughly, especially between the folds of skin. *Testicular Itchiness and Stickiness* 1. *Apply a topical cream*: Use a topical cream or ointment containing hydrocortisone or calamine to reduce itchiness and inflammation. 2. *Keep the area clean*: Gently clean the testicular area with mild soap and warm water. *Follow-up* 1. *Schedule a follow-up appointment*: Visit your dermatologist after completing the treatment to assess progress and adjust treatment if necessary. Remember to be patient, as it may take some time to fully recover from the infection.
