What should I do about the red, swollen, and ulcerated groin?

Patient's question:

My groin (both sides) is red, swollen, and purulent, with pus discharge from the back of the testicles and a foul odor. What are the symptoms? How can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is considered to be caused by fungal infection, which is usually contagious. It is recommended to use Lamisil cream, Terbinafine hydrochloride cream for topical application. In severe cases, oral Itraconazole can be taken. Persistence in using the medication for more than 4 weeks is important for testicular patients, as timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If not treated promptly, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
