Red Scrotum

by Sekao, Oct 26, 2007 02:33PM
I have been having a very red scrotum when setting down or standing up for a long period of times.  When I am in the laying down positon the reddess goes away.  I also have some heavy sweats.  My body gets really wet from presperation.   I am also a type two diabetic.  Have been for years.  I talked to my doctor and he said I might have epidymitis from being a diabetic.  He put me on doxycyline 100 mg twice a day.  I really do not see any improvement.  Has any body got any ideas or hear of this before.

I have had a similar problem for the past year. When it started I realised that I had had this condition before - when I was 10 and again in my twenties - I am now in my forties - it was always when I had a cold and my immune system was run down.

I have experienced pain in my anal region, tingling on my scrotum, reddened scrotal skin and terrible itching. It has been difficult to walk, sit or do any physical exercise. My life has been a living hell!!!

I have tried everything to cure it and spent a great deal of time searching the web for solutions.

HOWEVER, THE GOOD NEWS IS IT'S GONE!!!!

Here's what I found out - it's caused by bacteria that shouldn't be where they are (!) - and the cure for me has been to apply VINEGAR - these bugs don't like acid and what we all tend to do is apply alkaline based solutions to the affected area - making the condition worse!


I have applied approx 3 tablespoons of vinegar mixed with 6 tablespoons of water to the affected area - I had relief from the tingling in a matter of 3 hours and all the pain went within 6 hours.

I have been pain and discomfort free for three days now.

Try it - what do you have to lose apart from the pain

Good luck!
