What is the reason for the hard lumps under the child's testicles?

Patient's question:

The child is 1.5 years old and has a growth under the testicles. During the day, they don't wear diapers, but they wear one when sleeping during the nap. The red area feels a bit hard.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, there is a recurrence of skin lesions under the scrotum. If the skin appears red and hardened, it is possible that it may be related to the transmission of tinea. It is necessary to have the child examined by a dermatologist. Once the diagnosis of tinea is confirmed, local application of antifungal cream can be used for treatment. It is important to change diapers frequently to prevent urine from irritating the area, which could lead to the recurrence of itching symptoms.
