Suggest Treatment For Scrotum Pimples During Tinea Cruris
I am a 43 year old married male having two children. When I was about 13 years old, I had symptoms of tinea cruris. When the disease started, there was severe etching around my groin which gradually spread to the scrotum and male organ. The etching went away on its own and now there is no etching. Even after undertaking several treatments, i still have the symptom of the disease. The entire scrotum and about 2/3rd of the penis is full of pimples. I have tested VDRL several times but every time it showed negative or non-reactive. What kind of a disease I am carrying and is there any treatment for complete eradication of the disease? Kindly reply.
