Rashes Near Penis Area, Uncomfortable In Walking. What Is Treatment?
This is really embarrassing at night time when there comes itching near penis area. Involuntarily it gets scratched and skin gets tear out. This makes uncomfortable to walk in day time. I have been using Itch gaurd since more that couple of years but want to get rid of this permanently. What is cause and solution for this.
hi and thanks for the query,
the commonest disease that causes itching around the genitals with what you describe is genital herpes virus infection. Diagnosis is generally made on a clinical bases. I suggest you visit your primary care physician for prescription of anti viral drugs and probably some anti histamines to stop the itching. It would also be wise to get your partner treated, in case you are sexually active.
Thanks and best regards,
Luchuo, MD.
