Question 1

I'm really struggling with some serious itching around my groin, and it seems to get worse when things get wet down there. I've tried a bunch of creams, but the itching just keeps coming back, and every time I scratch, it ends up bruising and hurting even more. It's spreading, and now it's around my butt crack too, which is making me really nervous. Ive been using a hot air blower to soothe it, but I'm worried this could mess with my sperm count because of the heat. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

To treat this, I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to help clear the infection from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. If the itching persists or worsens, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I've got these three lines on my stomach that I thought were from when I was heavier. Now that I've lost weight, I still have them. What can be done to make them go away?

Accepted Answer

To help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, you can try using a topical cream containing Tretinoin. Apply a thin layer of Tretinoin cream on the affected area once daily at night. Additionally, you can also consider using a cream containing Hyaluronic Acid to improve skin hydration and elasticity. Make sure to consult with a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.

Question 3

I'm a 29-year-old guy dealing with jock itch, and I'm looking for a good hair removal cream for the area above my penis and on my testicles. I'm especially concerned about finding something without side effects. Is it okay for guys to use women's hair removal creams? Also, I want the hair to grow back in about a month, so I'm not interested in anything permanent. What's readily available at most drugstores that you would recommend?

Accepted Answer

Blisters on the testicles with itching could be caused by a variety of conditions. Some possible causes are folliculitis, contact dermatitis , genital herpes, ingrown hairs or pseudofolliculitis , fungal infections.Avoid scratching or popping, clean the area gently,wear loose fitting underwear and avoid known irritants. Consult a dermatologist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
