Avatar n tn can jock itch move to your penis? i have had it for months now and can only keep it under control w powder, not get rid of it. when i have sex w/my girlfriend, afterwards my penis gets red, raw and gets little cracking in the skin right under the head of my penis, some small amount of itching. has the jock itch moved to my penis or is this something else? i might add there are no sores or anything like that. it seems to heal and only get raw after sex.
Avatar n tn herpes won't just cause itching. you were on antibiotics, it is probably just jock itch and you can treat that with otc products. if you think it's more than jock itch, be seen again for a work up.

Avatar n tn I have jock itch a lot during the summer. I use a combination of anti-monkey butt powder and jock itch powder. However, in an area on my scrotum right before my thigh I noticed a lot of peeling skin the other day. And then today I noticed a bump and I popped it and water came out and it left a circular sore and there are other remnants of healed skin. It doesn't itch and isn't painful except if I touch the sore.
Avatar n tn I have seen mentioned in many answers that jock itch is no indication of any underlying immune problem. Why do many web sites that talk about jock itch say that it may in fact be do to a weakened immune system. I have a nagging case of jock itch, which has been on and off for about a month, and has now seemed to spread to my anus area. Thank you in advance for your answer.
Avatar m tn ll need an insulated bag with ice packs to get it home alive. Also topically you can apply a good jojoba lotion or buy the jock itch ointment from the drug store. Hope your "candida" clears up.
Avatar m tn I had sex with a new partner for the first time in a long while and two weeks later discovered I had contracted Chlamydia. About another 2 weeks later I took 1g Azithromycin and a week after that was cleared up. Now it's about 1.5 months after that contact (no further sexual contact since that one time) and my scrotum is starting to itch. Particularly the underside where it contacts the thighs. I've watched closely for several days and there is no sign of any sores forming (Herpes?
Avatar m tn I have been on antibiotics recently and research pointed to a higher risk of fungal infection, specifically jock itch. But I haven't been experiencing any itching at all, and am unsure if that rules out jock itch. I've tried hydro-cortisone cream, but the white bumps on the rash kept spreading. Please help.
Avatar m tn its probably severe jock itch try some lotromin at a pharmacy spcifically for jock itch
Avatar n tn So the itch came after the antibiotics? It could be a mild yeast infection or jock itch, which is really common after antibiotic use. Follow up with your doctor.
Avatar m tn odds are your itching externally is a fungal infection - aka jock itch. You can see your provider for a proper exam to diagnose it or even just try an otc jock itch cream twice a day for 7 days and see if that helps.
Avatar m tn at this point after antibiotics, you might even have a yeast infection issue causing you irritation. why not try an otc jock itch treatment cream for a week or so and see how that works?

Avatar n tn I was diagnosed with jock itch back in october 09. the rash has since gone away but there is a constant dull rug burn type sensation on the left side of scrotum and occassionally penis. the sensation ceases after urinating. I did have oral sex from a girl in late september. other then the sensation and jock itch there has never been any legions or painfull sores although i now notice small red dots that when squeezed have solid pimple like material from them.

Avatar n tn I realize about a day later I reoccurred Jock itch. I am not sure if I occured Jock Itch prior to sexual intercourse. Can you get HIV if you have sexual intercourse with someone who might have HIV through Jock itch. I went to the doctor a week later and all STD test came back negative as well as HIV.
Avatar m tn Hello, The symptoms are suggestive of Jock itch. Jock itch shows up in post-adolescent men and hormonal changes during puberty, lifestyle and heredity each play a role. Predisposing fungal disease like tines cruris may also aggravate it. Wash your groin daily and then dry thoroughly by pat drying, not rubbing. A hairdryer is useful if you have hairy groins. The damp groin is an ideal site for fungi to multiply.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor a week later and all STD test came back clear as well as HIV.
Avatar m tn t know how to treat it. I assumed it was jock itch or whatever it is called because I researched it. So my question is how do I treat this to make it go away forever and another question is that is it contagious cause my girlfriend wants to have sex with me both for the first time so can she like catch what u have or not please help I don't know what to do and I am too embarrassed to ask my mum thanks.
Avatar m tn Though it is called jock itch, it may not itch always. Usually a reddish rash or area of darkened or tanned skin appears on penis/scrotum/groin fold/adjacent thighs. This is often accompanied by a burning or tingling sensation. Also the diagnosis of jock itch appears to be correct since the sensation responded to application of an antifungal and the rash has dried up and is becoming scaly. The treatment may take about 4-5 weeks to produce complete results.
Avatar m tn Hi I have a jock itch in which I am scratching evry night but it doesn't posses any wound or any..Recently a hooker gave me a blowjob with a condom. I am thinking that her saliva with blood would drip to my scrotum ( which I scratched ) will put me on any risk..Do i need HIV testing on this manner?? Thnx.
