itchy, sticky scrotum

[wranglerjeans]

This is to address the posted answer that was made on itchy sticky scrotum. Dr. this condition is a real condition and it is spreading like wild fire. No doctor out there has found any real answers for this condition. The man that made the statement concerning his scrotum is not imagining his problem nor is it in his mind. I share his problem and have gone from doctor to doctor, dermatologists, etc., you name it. They have put me on creams, foams, powders, but nothing has helped.  I am tired of the excuses and guesses. I know its frustrating for a doctor to not be able to help his patient, that is if he/she really cares about their patient. Truth is sir, no one knows anything about this skin condition. Mine started with small tiny bumps in my pubic hairs. I remember like it was yesterday. It was after an sexual encounter or night at a hotel and I thought the female gave me something. I'm not saying its sexually transmitted because we were in a hotel and it could have be that in my bathing maybe the hotel rags had some type of bacteria in them. I have been reading up on this condition from many men postings over the web and some said they were not sexually active or never been outside their marriage or really don't understand how this came about. I can only speak for me that it was the day after a sexual encounter. Now whether the woman or something in the hotel I can't tell but like I said it started with small bumps in my pubic hairs. Later, I started itching in my scrotum. When I started using antifungus creams it later became sticky. I have been affected by this condition for 2 years now and nothing and nobody has said or gave me any cures. I am still hoping that some Dr. out there will take on this condition and learn about it, study it, maybe get some scientific help concerning it. You will here more about this condition from men because it is real, and we don't know how we are getting it and the saddest part, there seems to be no cure at the present time. I just wanted to speak on the man's defense that its not in his mind. May have nothing to do with a new STD because its not proven to come through sex. But I will say I hope somebody will find a cure out there before it ends up an epidemic all over dermatologist offices everywhere.

Has anyone gotten a definitive answer or cure or found a doctor who cares? It's now February 2016 and I've been dealing with this **** for 2 years. Started immediately after unprotected oral with an older Asian girl I met at bar whom I later found out was a 'massage therapist'. (FML)

Symptoms:
-Started as burning paper cuts on scrotum
Entire scrotum went red
-Started sweating from groin and armpits profusely
-Inner thighs darkened from sweat
-now constant red, sweaty, sticky scrotum and schlong all the time.

Bc of the unprotected oral I received I realize this could be a complication from HSV1, but not one doctor gives any credence to that theory and they don't care. I KNOW I'm sweating profusely from my groin and armpits for over two years now. The red sack will not go away. All my buddies joke and call me the 'Red Baron' now.

I'm now (luckily) married and My wife won't go near that big red delicious apple anymore (nothing delicious about it I don't blame her). I'm just like all of you- Mentally and physically dying slowly one day at a time from this debilitating condition. I've seen 2 absolute moron dermatologists at UCLA dermatology who have no clue and give the most asinine suggestions like "change your soap" "it's all in your head / anxiety" or "contact dermatitis" . These ******* quacks are so lazy to try and treat anything that's not typical from their textbooks. They aren't worth the white coats they wear and they should be ashamed to call themselves doctors. We all know THERE ARE MILLIONS OF US OUT HERE SUFFERING AND THE WESTERN MEDICAL COMMUNITY DOES NOTHING. ITS ABSURD.

The only thing that has helped me is daily is strong formulated probiotics and Epsom salt baths to get the skin to relax so it's not so damn tight and tucked into my body 24/7.

I can tell you I've had a myriad of other symptoms which include:
-broken verifies veins under arms / on scrotum
-brown Pigmentation on sides of legs, between buttux, under arms
-sticky, gross, smelly sweat.
-oily skin all the time
-pimples b/w legs and anywhere I sweat
-my skin now is so sensitive to anything I touch including my own skin or anything foreign. My skin quickly turns red and becomes irritated.
-I've also experienced diarrhea, flatulence and stomach cramps when not on a probiotic and my urine is WAAY darker then it used to be.

Again I've tested negative on all STDs except for HSV1.

I'm currently undergoing blood testing and just received word that my liver enzymes AST-ALT are spilling out into my blood (AWESOME!) and now I'm doing more testing for anything infectious including hepatitis and all other STDs (previously done but doing again as the morons with the lab coats need to see for themselves)

I don't know if that woman gave this RSS to me as it could be some bacteria as well as I was working out at the gym and using the pool/sauna/steam. But when I listen to my body I still feel as if this is something going on internally in the nervousness system or an undiagnosed disease/bacteria/STD/yeast affecting one of my organs. (I.e. Liver / kidney)

This really is a slow  death sentence for any normal man that had a great sex life before. As many of you mentioned it s incredibly difficult to carry on a normal intimnate relationship as I am now married and am so ******* worried about infecting my partner.

WE ALL NEED TO KEEP POSTING AND KEEP WRITING OUR MORONIC DOCTORS AND THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY.

I am going to an eastern medicine practitioner next week so I will update on what treatments he perscribes me (if they work).

Keep your head up fellas. We will find a cure to this nasty ******* RED SACK. WE MUST. And if doctors aren't willing to help then let's do it ourselves. Good luck my brothers. Keep posting solutions and possible keys to unlocking the matrix. We're all in the same red, sweaty, ball bag...

Hey keep me posted plz.. I just started having this same problem 3 weeks ago... I'm 32 married for 2years..blood tests are normal..I keep a solid weekly workout regiment... Drink Friday and sat nights which I'm going to completely stop.. I haven't had sex in a month because of how the friction seems too act things up even if i masterbate..  If I was to guess I think its mental and stress related... Cheers

I take the same vitamin D pills.  To cure me I took 2 in the morning with my breakfast and 2 with my dinner.  

4 days later I feel great.

Bought the Vitamin D pills at costco.

[gotproblems12]

Dude.  Same issues and Vitamin D cured me.

Went to costco to get their GoodNatured D3 vitamin D pills.  directions suggest one a day.  Screw that.  I took 2 in the morning with my breakfast and 2 with my dinner. Cured after 4 days.  I am still taking Vitamin D.

[gotproblems12]

Had similar issue.  When happened: had one night stand and two days later had jock itch symptoms.  (Balls strotum was clammy and penis head sensitive as hell).  Very uncomfortable and especially when wearing loose underwear like regular boxers (the chafing bugs me!!!)

What I did: Went to doctor had whole STD screening, he thinks it's fungal so writes perscription for anti fungal powder, and also got blood work done for the hell of it since they were taking out blood already.

Also went to drug store to buy store brand anti fungal spray powder.  burned like hell, but the feeling was 50 percent better.

Results: No STDs but blood work showed I was low on Vitamin D.  No big deal right?  So I went to costco to buy good nature vitamin D D3 pills.  I wasn't even buying it to fix this issue I was having, I just thought I needed vitamin D for the hell of it.  

Normal dose on instructions was 1 a day.  Screw that.  I took two after breakfast and 2 after dinner.  Every day.  After 4 days I'm cured.  My private area does not bother me at all.

It's been a week so far.

Hi All,

There is a yeast in the body cadillac which gives to rise to all such problems. If your sugar intake is high or your consumption of readymade products is high with high sugar contents these symptoms show up. Please take probiotic, or natural probiotic like curd and Vitamin D & E. This would be able to get rid of the problem in 3 months. No oinments will cure this problem and even if it is cured it will resurface as we are trying to catch the wrong end of the stick.

Please revert back if it helps and pass the word around.....

My sticky skin syndrome covered my entire body. I finally went to a dermatologist who recommended using Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash. I believe it's the salicylic acid that solved the problem. This worked like magic.
