Avatar m tn I got into a sexual encounter with a boy nearly three months ago. Though we did not have sex, there was hand to genital contact. I have never had anything go wrong and have not felt different for these three months. Until recent I noticed that I've been having flaky, dry skin in my pubic hair area above my penis and kind of on my scrotum. There is just a mild redness above my penis underneath the pubic hair. I only use hot water and soap to shave but have shaved for at least a month.
Avatar m tn d never had sex. Although, about a month or two ago I shaved my pubic hair (was a very bad idea in retrospect), and I used my parents razor without telling them. After reading some stuff online I was worried that I had managed to contract something from that but I don't know if this is possible. Before all this though, they appeared seemingly out of knowhere, and before they appeared I did scratch my pubic hair a bit because it became really itchy, and when the spots came I itched them too.
Avatar f tn Hey! I'm a beauty therapist and we get this all the time, it's more than likely shaving rash/ingrown hairs. Shaving rash is more of a redness on the skin and ingrown hairs just look like a typical spot. We always say to pop the spot only if it has a white head, and u should find a hair poking out, just pull it with tweezers, it's pretty hard to get a good look at ur own bikini area. Having sex on the same day as shaving could also irritate the area from the friction.
Avatar n tn I have similar itching on the pubic hair area since few years. I think it started when I began using a razor. Itching is there wherever hair is present and I have been using candid B cream since then. Itching subsides while using the cream and reappears after stopping. I have tried applying it for two weeks. But itching recurred. Then i consulted a doctor and she advised me to continue on candid B, keep the area clean and wash with warm water, avoid tight inners ..etc .
Avatar n tn I took a shower and ever since then I have really been itching in my pubic area. Not in my vaginal area but at the top of my hair line down to wear my vaginal area starts. Can you tell me what to do over the counter to clear this up?
Avatar n tn This morning, in the shower, I noticed that around the base of my penis, on the side facing me and right at the line of my pubic hair there were many small red bumps. They don't look very big, somewhat like hair follicles, but there doesn't appear to be hair growing out of them. About 2/3 of the small red bumps are actually under my pubic hair, above the penis. If I were to guess I would say there are over 20.
Avatar n tn I have noticed red marks on the skin just above my pubic hair. They are smooth and not raised from the surface, and aren't itchy or sore. It also continues underneath the hair, although it is not as noticable. I don't think it can be anything related to sex, as I haven't had sex in months, and the condition has only appeared recently. I do, however, trim my hair and shave around the edges to keep it tidy - could this be causing it? I can't think of anything else.
Avatar f tn I remember this started in my thigh area then my pubic hair area right before my labia majors then I got it on both sides of my lower back not at the same time, now I have a red patch about the size of the tip of my finger in my pubic hair area the fatty part, it hasn't turned into any blisters its just red and itchy started about 2 days ago. Could this all be related to the herpes virus?
Avatar m tn Got a burning sensation in my groin area that comes and goes. Also a burning sensation on my upper inner thighs and pubic hairs. No reddish rashes on they area. But I did have a couple of bumps on my scrotum with a hair on the middle of them that disappeared a few days later so I wasn’t able to show them to my dermatologist. My doctor said it’s just eczema and doesn’t sound or look like herpes.
Avatar n tn One important cause that is rare and often screened for at birth is congenital adrenal hyperplasia, this is a block in the enzymes that the adrenal glands make and there is a build up of the male hormones that then cause the hair to become coarse and curly in the pubic and axillary area and cute baby sweat to change to body odor.
Avatar n tn Dear Doc, More than four weeks ago, my scrotum became shiny red with white spots at the pubic hair joints. I also had burning sensation in my underarms with no visible sign. I showed myself to a doctor and I was diagnosed with eczema. Then almost a week later I also developed burning sensation on my inner thighs with my skin becoming slightly dark with small spots at the hair joints. I was given Hydrocortisoni cream for this.
Avatar f tn Cerave foaming cleanser for face, aczone 7.5%, tazorac .05%. The itch is usually worse at night. I do shave my pubic hair. My pubic hair area gets itchy as well. There is no inflamation on my glans nor scrotum. When the rash goes away, i take care to continue washing and moisturizing the area but they soon appear again. The inflamation on the outrr areas of my jock itch looks like raised red rash. It doesnt fill with pus like the one on my foreskin.
Avatar f tn I have a really irritating ich in my pubic are. I am15 years old and I have only been sexually active once, but he was a virgin and so was I. What is causing my itchiness?
Avatar m tn Hi Our groan and pubic area in general should always be kept clean and showered once a day and that includes your bell end, and if your having a problem around your groan try shaving away all your pubic hair, this way you will be relly clean, shave the same time you shave your face after the first time, remember only shave downwards this way you should not get any trouble with an itchy cruch, works for me never had any problems down below, shaved for the last 35 years.
Avatar m tn I'm a sixteen-year-old male (duh,scrotum) and I recently shaved my pubic hair and acquired an itchy,dry rash on my scrotum. It's characterized by a leathery feel to it,and the skin is slightly peeling,more like flaking. Also,it burns like crazy when rubbing alcohol is applied to the area.I've never had such a rash before,and I'd really like some help in what it may be,and how to get rid of it.
Avatar f tn They had been diagnosed with eczema which CAN happen in that area. They make products specifically for eczema. I've used them on another area of my body when I had intense itching and couldn't find a cause it the product I used did work (think it was aveeno brand eczema ointment, bought OTC at the drug store. Wasn't cheap, like 18 bucks but it has lasted forever). I've be tempted to try that. Have you ever heard of Lichen simplex chronicus? This might be worth looking up.
3136223 tn?1367960716 So, for almost a month, on and off, I get this UNBEARABLE itch on my pubic area. It's only on the outside. I haven't shaved in about 3 weeks (I feel weird not shaving lol). But I actually scratched it so hard that I started to bleed and the fact that I have eczema doesn't help. I don't have any infections or a UTI, I just started using cortisone today, my mom was against it, but since I'm only using it on the outside, I think I should be fine. It's pretty uncomfortable.
Avatar m tn ve noticed similar blister like dots around the pubic area, so far its only doing this on the hairs...like the hair pore, i dont know what you call it. And in the area of my skin where my leg folds, my crotch, theres a purple discoloration with similar little white dots on it. Please tell me if this reminds you of anything, im really worried it could be an std, or could it just be eczema? Help out a very distressed teenager.
Avatar m tn so your saying that eczema is also tny red bumps below my penis head and under it alo a little red patch on my head?? Isnt eczema just red dry skin im concerned that theres many things going on in there? I will try what you perscribed as to what u think i should take but are these bumps really eczema and will calamine lotion help??
Avatar m tn 3 weeks ago I woke up from sleeping in a youth hostel bed with red patches on my penis just below my penis head and on the head. Sometimes while cold in bed I put my hands in my boxer shorts while trying to sleep and I distinctly remember doing so that night. I washed and they went away within a few hours. In the weeks that have followed they've only ever came back after sexual contact, masturbation and worst immediately after sex.
Avatar m tn I asked this question to Dr Handsfield and he said it almost certainly wasn't an STD. Over the past month I have had persistent itching on both of my inner thighs and all around the groin area. Within the last week or so while this was going on I noticed what appeared to be dry itchy spots on my penis. I scratched at three of these spots and they turned into hard red bumps, when squeezed a tiny amount of clear fluid with traces of blood came out.
Avatar m tn m sometimes itchy around the crotch area, but not directly on my penis, scrotum or around the pubic hair. The main areas are the back of my head, my neck, my forehead, my nose, etc. etc.
Avatar m tn it has not spread on to my penis but very close only the area above it where the pubic hair is. it seems to get better if i just avoid irritating the area at all but it is not really going away. there are white circles surrounding the bumps that flake off very eaisly *note i also have eczema but this seems to be different what is this? http://imgur.
Avatar n tn Hi, I developed a small localized redness at the base of the penis where the pubic hair starts to grow about 2 weeks ago now. It is smaller than the size of a dime (US currency) and has a shininess to it. The area is sensitive to touch and is very dry skin. I recently (2 days ago) have been applying Aveeno lotion to help with the dryness. It is still red and sore to the touch but other than that does not really have any large discomfort.
Avatar m tn I belive I have eczema in my genital area because I have it also on my chest. I've tried treating it with different types of lotions but lotions seem to make it worse. I tend to scrath the area because of the itchiness which then leads to breaking of the skin at the base of my penis. Never breaking of the skin anywhere else in the genital region, just at the crevase of the lower pubic area at the base of the penis.
Avatar m tn looking cut on both sides along the inside of my groin, in the folds of the thigh in the line where my pubic hair meets with my tigh hair. Could this be hsv 2? I tested for hsv 1 & 2 at 6 weeks and 3 months post exposure. In both test I tested positive for hsv 1 and negative for hsv 2.
