What Causes Itchiness And Dark Red Patches On The Scrotum?

Had protected sex less than a week ago with a girl and the very next day my scrotum and the area between my sack and butt were ichy and felt like my skin was kid of crawling, then about 3-4 days later i have really dark red patches on either side of my scrotum and the odd tingling every know and then. We used a flavored lube with heat in it i think both inside and outside condom, just wondering what this could be and if i should be concerned.

Hello
Thanks for query .
itching of the skin in genital area following chemically lubricated condom is mostly due to chemical reaction to lubricants in condom .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .along with topical steroidal cream like Betnovate twice daily.

Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
