Contact Dermatitis
Posted: 01-12-04 12:54pm

Back in october of 2003 my scrotum really started to itch a lot, but the skin seemed to look fine. I went to the doctor and she gave me an anti-fungal cream to treat what she thought was jock itch. This cream made the scrotum itch more and it turned the skin on my scrotum very red. After a couple of weeks I went back to the doctor and told her that the cream was not working, so she gave me some hydrocortisone cream and told me that it was not jock itch. I tried this and it did not work, so she referred me to a dermatologist. The dermotologist thinks that I have contact dermatitis, but I have been using a non-steriod (elidel) creme that he prescribed for me and have been using for the past two months, with no improvement (accept it doesn't itch as much). Anyways, could I have jock itch? If so, once you start using an anitfungal cream, how many days before the itching starts to go away? If it is not jock itch, how long can a dermatitis last for? It seems like after almost four months, that the rash would go away with elidel or a steroid cream. Will the redness ever go away. Thanks.

Tahitian Noni Juice
Posted: 01-13-04 19:04pm

Has anyone ever used tahitian noni juice? Do you think that this will actually heel chronic contact dermatitis? I've read a couple of posts on this forum that talk about the miracle of noni juice. Also, can it be any kind of noni juice or does it have to be tahitian? Thanks,

andy
