help please! why is my ball sack...

i am 17 years old. recently i just noticed my ball sack is very dry and scaly, and it is very red. my d.ick  seems fine, but from the base to the balls it is red, dry, and seems like its burning, and when i touch it feels warmer than usual.

....i was thinking of certain things that could have caused this. because it seems so random; it just started yesterday. i havent had unprotected sex, or sex at all recently...

the only thing i could think of is using stuff like clear skin acne gel or styling hair as lubricants to jerk off; i obviously did not have any lubricant.

could this have caused it?  i really hope it goes away soon; i have read some posts where guys mention they have had it for years now

Its probably a rash.. it might go away or you might have to get it checked out.
dont be embarrased lots of people use many things to masterbate with,
but from now on i would suggest using petrolium jelly (you can buy it for like 1-4$ at a dollar store)
or your own saliva maybe even water but for sure you should stop using gels for your face and hair it kinda would bring on a rash.
wishing you the best and hoping its not permanent.
