by sdhawan, Sep 10, 2009 11:34AM
Hello I'm 28 and have been dealing with this problem for about 7 years. The skin on my scrotum has become dry
The skin on my scrotum has become dry almost all over and the feel is sometimes leathery.Secondly scrtum has solid wart like lesions and they appear to be increasing from 2 . They were 2 for many years.. This problem has also spread on to the foreskin on my penis
Penis care (uncircumcised)
Penis pain I believe. I am  circumcised, and the foreskin has also began to show signs similar to my scrotum. My anus also has developed a similar itch now, so I believe the problem has spread to other areas. how I can solve this problem. Please help.I am worried that if it is a cancer. please advice me.
I have not taken many medicines till now. My father also had this problem I believe. Thank you for your time.

Hello,
I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be lichen simplex chronicus or eczema. Lichen Simplex Chronicus is seen in people with eczema.

It is treated like chronic eczema by decreasing water and soap contact, and applying emollients. Topical steroids are almost always needed to control the symptoms. You can use mild steroid cream like Dermacort and if the symptoms persist then high potency steroids and oral steroids may be needed.
My sincere advice would be to consult a dermatologist to get the diagnosis confirmed.

I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
