A member asked:
Will a doctor ever skin sample your scrotum or penis? im going in shortly to get tested for jock itch on the scrotum and if they do does it hurt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not for jock itch: Dr will advise use of powder or medication. Scrotal or penile skin biopsy is reserved almost exclusively to excise suspected skin melanoma. Type of skin cancer that can appear like an enlarging black or ram brown blemish, especially if it is raised.
