Can Excess Skin From Scrotum Be Removed?

can I get excess skin from my scrotum removed?
I have been scratching them under a hot shower for years, (It is soooooo goooood,) ...and I am stopping now, but I am not so confident that my scrotum will be ok again. They look awful. There seems no elasticity left, and tons of excess skin.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. You don't have to worry about that. You were scratching the scortum. While you scratch, the dry skin gets peeled off. Along with that the accumulated dirt also comes out. You are seeing a combination of those two. I suggest you to wash it off with soap and water. Be careful not to pull the skin off. Clean it when it comes off. Secondly make it a point not to scratch the area for long. You have to keep the area clean and dry. You must not use undergarments without rinsing them off the soap molecules. These causes itching.

If you still need my assistance in this regard, please use this link. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Please remember to describe the whole problem with full detail.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck. Take care.
