I have testicular rashes, itching, and redness, without being sexually active. Why?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have testicular rashes, my ball sacks are itching, and it has turned red. I am dying of it. I did not have any unprotected sex or intercourse at all. Please help me out. How do I stop this itching?

Reply with a solution, please.

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for writing, and I understand your concern. Such rashes and itching are signs of infections that are due to sexual contact. If you have not had sex at all, then do not worry. Chances of sexually transmitted diseases are rare.

This is due to infections such as dermatitis. I suggest you apply ointment Betnovate (Betamethasone) twice daily, take tablet Cetirizine 10 mg once daily before sleeping, and tablet Cefixime 200 mg twice daily after meal. Take this treatment for five days and let me know after five days.

Use fresh towels only. Wash your underwear daily with hot water.

Thank you.
