Dark Brown Spot In Scrotum Area, Increased In Length. Cause?
I have a dark brown spot in my front, right scrotum area...not attached to either penis or testicles. It is about an inch long and has increased in length over time. There is no redness, no itching or pain. Should I have this checked by my Dermatologist as a possible skin cancer ...for which I (66) have a history (ear, nose)?
Hi Harry,
Thanks for writing in.
The condition you are suffering from can be erythrasma,tinea cruris,acquired melanocytic nevus etc.
Consider a visit to dermatologist for prescription drugs.
Discuss the option of Skin biopsy with your doctor.It will help a lot in proper definitive diagnosis and subsequent diagnosis.
Hope this helps.
If you need any further clarification do let me know.
