Dry, itchy and scaly scrotum and groin skin fold.
Some days ago I noticed dry and dead skin at the base of my bottom. So I cleared it by applying soap and scratching it. After 1 week dead skin appeared again with little itchiness too, so I repeated the procedure and cleared the dead skin. After that itching reached to my skin fold of groin. It is centered to the left side. The base of scrotum is also red and shiny. I dont know if this is jock itch or what. However I don't go to gym or regular in any physical activities. Also I don't wear undergarments at home.
Please help!!

Hi,
If your living climate has recently changed to cold and dry, it is mostly due to the dryness. Do not use soap nor scratch the area. Moisturizing creams like aloevera gel may be useful. Also since the scaling is spreading, it may be due to an infection, you need to consult a dermatologist.
