Patient's question:
At the very bottom of my husband's scrotum near his left leg, there's a red sore that hurts. It looks like a small crack, and you can see the red flesh.What could have caused this? Years ago, he also had an inflammation like this, but it was a much larger area back then.
What kind of ointment should he use?
Doctor's answer:
Based on your condition, it is likely that the discomfort is caused by external vaginal moisture and irritation. There is a possibility of ulcers, so it is best to rest actively, clean with mild salt water, and use Bactroban if necessary to alleviate the discomfort. However, it is advisable to avoid sexual activity in the short term to prevent cross-infection.
