Is ann infection spreading?

So I've had what I thought was balanitis on and off on my penis for years. But no fungal cream ever worked. The only cream that worked was Mupirocin 2% - fast forward today, I was masturbating and its always triggered by friction and this thing came back. However it seems like I was too late in the getting the cream this time because whatever infection is happening isn't going down. Here are my symptoms below...

- Inguinal groin swelling (non-hard)
- Skin texture changes to loose and sticky, almost sponge-like all over body (more specifically lower legs)
- Starting to get numbness on my butt, penis, and legs from it
- Lower back pain (have already confirmed my spine is perfect)

So I feel this has something to with a bacterial skin infection. I've already seen 3 urologists who all think this is skin related and not fungal related. I'm just at a loss and don't want to die from something like this. Please help.
