my underneath of the testicle skin is a little bit itchy. i used many antifungal cream but it didn't work. so, a doctor suggested me to use alcohol pad. then it was totally fine. is using alcohol pad safe on the testicle skin area?

Question 3

is it okay to use ketoconazole 2% topical cream on testicles and anal?

: Only if so prescribed and not in the anal canal. There are also side effects that may develop given area being covered. Would suggest confirming with prescribing physician prior to use.

Question 4

is it ok to use diprobase cream for itchy testicles? is the only thing that seems to work

Accepted Answer

Diprosone (betamethasone dipropionate)?: From what you described, i guess you meant diprosone (betamethasone dipropionate) containing betamethasone, a steroid, for topical use, working well for psoriasis or lichen atrophicus...

For specific detail, see, talk, and work with an expert timely will be just fine.

Question 5

is it fine to use skin whitening cream on penis or on testicles?

Accepted Answer

Diagnosis dependant!: Using lightening creams to the genitalia may be ok, but it depends on your underlying diagnosis.  Hydroquinone's are typically the agents used to bleach out dark colors, but chemical peels and lasers are also being used along with new fading creams.  I would exercise caution in bleaching the genitalia and visit an experienced urologist or dermatologist prior to treating.

Question 6

testicles sweat nd cause smell.smell is not fishy.what should i use anti.becterial cream or anti fungal cream:?

Accepted Answer

Not yet: If there is any irritation to the area, recommend anti-fungal cream. However, if there is no irritation, recommend increase hygiene, showers, srubbing with soap, and keeping dry, including possibility of using powder to keep area dry for few days. If you continue to have symptoms, discuss with primary care doc. Do not use anti-bacterial cream in area-increases chances of fungal growth and mrsa.

Question 7

can i use lotrimin (clotrimazole) af antifungal cream on testicles?

Accepted Answer

Yes: No problem using lotrimin (clotrimazole) cream on the scrotum if you have a yeast infection there.

Question 8

my son is 10 yrs old and he has some skin irritation on his testicles, it looks like small round spots, it is itching, can i use lozee cream .

Accepted Answer

There are normal: spots on testes including angiokeratomas which are reddish purple and totally benign. I would not use Lozee which is a high potency steroid clobetasol on any genital area. You can try hydrocortisone which is mild, keep area dry with cornstarch and see pediatrician or dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment if itching doesn't clear

Question 9

had flucanzole two days ago for maleyeast infection and use nystin cream. only had inflammation and red around head of penis, now red on testicles?

Accepted Answer

You might have: spreading yeast infection or medication reaction.  Because treatment is different, you need to go back and see your doctor.  You should also get tested for diabetes, especially if you have a positive family history.

Question 10

i have an itch on my testicles/scrotum for 2 months and flares up, ooze fluids after bath, red and very dry skin. i use antifungal sulfur soap and it doesn't work. i need a better ointment or cream please?

Accepted Answer

: You need a moisturizer that can be bought OTC. Cetaphil works for me when I itch. If no result, consult your urologist.
