Red, Dry, Skin On Testicles
Posted: 08-03-05 13:37pm

Some kind of rash developed the other night. Woke up n the morning and specific area of my testicles were red, swollen and irritated. Thought it was just a heat rash or friction rash (i had treated myself the night before). I put destin on it (ointment for diaper rash).

I began looking up material on web and found that vasaline might work. After the desitine wore off, I applied vasaline.

It allieviated the discomfort, but the infected area has spread to now include by entire testicles, but it's pretty much confined to only the testicles. The skin has become less irrittated, rather it almost feels numb, almost like paper.

Picked up some lotrimine last night after concluded it may be jock itch, but the more I read, the less i'm convinced that's the case.

Any help? I've hide this from the wife so far (too embarassing) but that's not oging to last forever. Need to get it cleared up.

You could be having an allergic reaction to some type of body wash your use or shampoo or something along the lines of that. Or if you play sports you could sweat alot causing swelling and redness. I would say use the cream and if it doesnt clear up in a week or continues to worsen go to a doctor.
