What Causes White Patches At The Bottom Of Scrotum?

Sir/ma am, I m 18 yrs old and my problem is that I have some white rashes on my scrotum and bottom side of the penis. This actually seems like the skin just gets dry and becomes white. It becomes very itchy in these parts. I ve been using Vaseline on these areas for the last 3-4 days but it handles the situation for a short period. I have my appointment with the doctor 2 days from today. So please help me get rid of this itchy situation asap. Thank you
