Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 29-years-old and I have an allergy on my right testicle. It is itchy and dry. Please suggest a solution for this problem.

Thanks.

Answered by Dr. Atishay Bukharia

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

You are suffering from lichen simplex chronicus of the scrotum. I suggest using Mometasone cream twice daily for 10 days and tablet Levocetirizine and Motelukast twice daily for 10 days. Consult a specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines with their consent.

I hope this helps.

Thanks.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thanks for the reply.

My problem came under control and that skin allergy is clearing now. There is no itching and no dryness. Thanks for the suggestion. Should I continue the medication or can I stop? Please advice.

Thanks.

Reduce the dose to thrice weekly for a month. Stop taking oral medication.
