Patient's question:
There is a patch of white skin between the legs and testicles, like dry skin, occasionally itchy, with a few small bumps. Just asked a doctor, he said it's jock itch. I want to ask how to treat it?Doctor's answer:
Tinea corporis is caused by a fungal infection. For mild cases, applying some antifungal creams externally can be cured. Examples of antifungal creams include clotrimazole cream or miconazole cream. For severe cases, it is advisable to consult a professional doctor in the dermatology department of a regular hospital for a thorough examination and treatment (oral and topical antifungal medications). For patients with testicular involvement, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
