I've been dealing with this really annoying itching and rashes around my scrotum and anus area for a few months now. It's pretty uncomfortable, and now I've noticed that the skin there has developed some dark patches. I've been using Candid powder and Suthol after showers, but it doesn't seem to be completely resolving the issue. Is there something else I could be doing to get rid of the itching?

I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've been using this steroid cream, Lobate GM, for quite some time because every time I try to stop, my skin breaks out in itchy rashes. Now that I'm expecting, I'm concerned about continuing with it. Can you help me figure out what to do? I really don't want to keep using it, but my skin flares up without it. What are my options here?

I've been dealing with these fordyce spots on my penile shaft and they just won't go away. My doctor suggested using Elocon cream, but it feels like it's just a temporary fix. The spots keep coming back and my skin gets all scaly and reddish, with some sensitivity. There's no discharge or pain, which is good, but it's still frustrating. What do you think I should do? Is there a better treatment or something I'm missing?
