Suggest Remedy For Dry White Crack Skin On Scrotum

I have had some kind of dry white cracky skin on my scrotum since 4 days. It started with a patch at place there as far as i remember, its non painful and it doesnt really itch if concerned... I take bath twice with mild warm water, I am not comfortable to go consult a doctor out here for some reason. Im 18 Year old. This patch increased to a large portion of my scrotum but no where else. I put a simple lotion to smooth the skin for the night but Im worried how can I get rid of this without anyone s notice.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
You have got a dry white cracky skin on the scrotum only for 4 days, which started as a patch at that place, is without any itch or pain.
Since your history is so short for the skin to change so much, this may be a case of psoriasis or some kind of a dermatitis which needs to be seen by a Dermatologist as the prescription medicines in such a case can be written by the Specialist.
In spite of your unwillingness, you have to visit the Dermatologist so that you get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
