Now I have a red shiny skin on scrotum and going up the penile shaft not itchy or burning. Went to the doctor on campus and he said that it look led like tinea and take this pill for 2 weeks along with anti fungal cream. And it should go away if not get a blood test done.

Hi,
It may be scrotal dermatitis. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. Antihistaminics like Cetirizine and oral steroid in tapering dose may be taken for two weeks. Apply mild steroid with antibiotic cream. Avoid soap bathing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
