Hello timcgriffith....
welcome to HCM...

AS PER UR QUERY u may be suffering from some bacterial / fungal growth...
and also u r using some home made solution..
but i personally advise u to visit a general physician so that u will get a permanent and better solution...as it may worsen after some time...

also wash properly before and after intercourse and if possible avoid sexual activity for some time....

Thanks
wishing u good health..

Hi,Timcgriffith,
Thanks for query,
It seems that you might have fungal infection on scrotum and on inner thigh.
Due to severe itching that part becomes sore ind infected giving rise to burning sensation.
Apply antifungin cream.
Take anti fungal tab. like flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Take cetrizine once a day for itching.
If infection is there then go for one anti biotic medicine.
Ok and bye.
